This contemporary house design brings an essence of Melbourne-inspired interiors to the Gold Coast. It embraces a monochromatic scheme, with sophisticated black and brushed nickel balancing natural timber and stone. A laser-cut staircase features as the hero piece of the home, highlighting the six-metre natural stone wall and refreshing garden bed below. High ceilings and doors accommodate ample natural light, making the moody interiors feel weightless instead of heavy.

This deck was getting a “bigger and better” remodel. We tore off the old deck and built this larger deck for mostly the length of their house. The homeowner wanted a low-maintenance free decking (tired of staining every year), larger deck to use his backyard space and make a more usable outdoor area, and also a grilling area. The material we choose was Timbertech’s PVC Capped Composite Decking in Tropical Series. The main color was Antiqua Gold then accented with a picture frame and one in the middle with the color Antique Palm. We then added Westbury’s Full Aluminum Railing (Tuscany Series) in Black. The homeowners also have a lake house, but did comment on wanting to stay in Des Moines to enjoy their new deck here. This deck will get much use and looks great. Great finished project and great clients to enjoy it for many years!

This was a complete tear off and rebuild of this new deck. Timbertech came out with a new series and new colors for 2020 this February. The homeowners wanted a maintenance free deck and chose the new stuff! The decking color they picked with their blue house was Timbertech’s Reserve Collection in the Driftwood Color. We then decided to add white railing from Westbury Tuscany Series to match the trim color on the house. We built this deck next to the hot tub with a removable panel so there is room to access the mechanical of the hot tub when needed. One thing they asked for which took some research is a low voltage light that could be installed on the side of the deck’s fascia that would aim into the yard for the dog in the night. We then added post cap lights from Westbury and Timbertech Riser lights for the stairs. The complete Deck Lighting looks great and is a great touch. The deck had Freedom Privacy Panels installed below the deck to the ground with the Boardwalk Style in the White color. The complete deck turned out great and this new decking is amazing. Perfect deck for this house and family. The homeowners will love it for many years.
