We’ve been working on our front deck for ages and it’s finally done! Our front deck has been transformed into a second living room. This transformation is a few years in the making. Last year, my husband Gus redid the deck with new horizontal slats for a more modern look. This year, he finished painting and the labor, so it was my turn to design the space.

I wanted this space to be comfortable to spend our time outside in the summer and into the fall, with pieces that I could transition inside when the weather turns. Here’s what I had in mind when we started designing this space:

• Modern
• Light grey deck
• Black and white accessories with pops of color
• Loveseat or couch for lounging
• Several lightweight chairs that are comfy and easy to move
• A bold, outdoor rug
• A dog bed for Max

I am so happy with how this space turned out. It came out even better than I thought it would! If you need me, I’ll be outside with my laptop, a mocktail and Max.
