Hot New Deck Trends

The rooftop deck of this modern California home overlooks a stunning view and has light gray decking that will keep cool even in the direct sun. You can get a similar look by choosing a semi-solid stain, like the line from Cabot, in a warm gray color.

With the right stain and seal, decking makes for a beautiful and durable outdoor shower.

A wooden plank walkway is another way to accentuate your yard with decking material.

No need to use a fabric rug in this outdoor space, given the orange and white-bordered rug painted on the wood deck. The cheery bright color scheme continues with the outdoor dining table and orange and white stools.
