Average Ratings:
No longer just a bland square of pressure-treated lumber nailed to the back of the house, decks have taken on new shapes, surfaces, and levels. And patios have evolved from dull slabs of poured concrete to encompass a wide range of forms and materials - from warm brick to chic bluestone to casual gravel. Taunton's Deck and Patio Idea Book is a photographic exploration of the possibilities for these spaces, and the features that define them, including railings, built-ins, and overhead structures. Hundreds of photos depict the full spectrum of styles and sizes, from the simple wraparound deck, to the curved, multilevel redwood deck with outdoor kitchen; from the small brick patio to an elaborate series of terraced patios with stone walls.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Inspiration that would cost a fortune to implement -
Knowing this book was an idea/inspiration publication versus a how-to, I ordered anyway. Yes, the projects were stunning, photography good and the "whys" behind the design concepts made clear. However, if you're looking for more practical and affordable inspiration this isn't the book for you. The price tag on most of the projects would easily hit the 5-figure+ mark. The really clever, out-of-the-box thinking type homeowner could certainly use this book to plan and execute a stunning outdoor space on a smaller scale at a fraction of the cost using non-conventional or lesser quality materials. For middle-class, DIY homeowners (like myself) this is too over the top. I enjoyed reading the book but since I'll never again open the cover, donated it to my small rural library.
Great selections of branded hammocks at American Islands
Teak Patio Warehouse - surely the ultimate teak furniture store!
Was hoping for more practical designs.... -
This book has some good designs, but not what I was expecting. I am looking to build a new deck (my first), and want ideas... This book had some fancy ideas, but not too many practical ideas... So if you are looking at a book like this, you are most likely going to pay someone else to do the job... There is nothing wrong with that though.... ;)
