208 Outdoor Large Patio, Porch, Deck Shrubs Design Photos And Ideas

A terrace and pool at the back of the house allow the homeowners to enjoy the clement weather.
The exterior decks are made of silicon-modified pine from OrganoWood.
Elevated on steel posts, the central volume and exterior deck project west toward the sea.
Pictured on the left is the former cottage that's located on the north side of the house. It houses two bedrooms, a kitchenette, dining area, bathroom, and a mud room.
In addition to spacious flagstone patios, the landscaping includes a running creek, rear pond, as well as a rocky wet and dry creek on site.
A look at the spectacular landscape.
The cedar-lined terrace has a fire pit which provides excellent additional space for outdoor entertaining.
The expansive terrace creates a smooth transition to the outdoors.
According to the architects, the house's "thinner dimensions not only display refinement of technique, but also remove visual weight from materials—the position being that lightness is good for the human spirit and visual heaviness is not."
"The creation of a 'functionally active' series of retaining walls with our colleagues at Surfacedesign activates the space for use with an outdoor fireplace, bar-b-que, and climbing wall," notes Maniscalco.
The unique residence features a 1,500-square-foot deck.

The Madrona by NODE is a 750-square-foot, zero-net energy guest house. Grid-tied, it stores energy with battery backup.
The columns are connected with wide, sandblasted glass panels that create a ceiling, which spreads light throughout the interiors during the day, and frames views of the stars at night.
“We wanted to ‘cap’ the dwelling with a generous, almost sweeping canopy that would keep the majority of the high sun exposure areas in shade,” says Pande. “We also played with the roof volume to break free from the constraints of a typical ‘box modern’ home.”

The resort-like outdoor space features breathtaking views of the surrounding mountain range.
The outdoor terrace is paved with honed basaltina. The teak outdoor sofas arranged around the fire pit are by James Perse.
Sections of the walls along the south-facing deck are painted bright blue to complement the sauna's pinkish-red door.
The cabin's upper volume cantilevers over a wooden deck.
The courtyard has a serene sitting area and frames views into the house and straight through to the other side.

Protected from the northeasterly winds, the deck enjoys ample access to sunlight. “My concept of the deck was to treat it almost like an infinity pool where there’s a very sharp edge and it being coplanar with the floor when you’re in the house looking out you can’t really see anything but the water,” adds John.
Local landscape designer Michael Bernsohn composed a palette of native plants artfully arranged to soften the hard edges of the deck while providing privacy and protection from the wind.
The newly landscaped yard is virtually maintenance free and features modern concrete hardscapes, as well as wood decking—perfect for alfresco entertaining.
The Hollywood Hills home sits on a high bluff and features stunning canyon views.
The rear terrace boasts a recently built heated swimming pool with an infinity edge.
To satisfy the 11-foot setback requirement, the architects have added a wraparound terrace and garden that helps handle stormwater runoff.
Sited on a flat lot, the property includes two generous, enclosed yards that can accommodate expansions or the addition of a pool.
The roof deck forms a connector between the two cedar-clad volumes, while also providing additional outdoor space.
Photovoltaics panels were installed at the pool house.
The south-facing deck leads out to the sauna.

Because the architects wanted to showcase the view of one of the more majestic oaks on the property, they placed a lap pool below the tree so the mirror-like surface of the water would gracefully reflect its image.
The oak trees, along with the topography of the site, inspired the design of the modern house.
The kitchen also comes with a lovely view of the pool, seamlessly integrating the interiors with the exteriors.
Clean lines and midcentury vibes surround the outdoor pool.
Operable Metal Planels
This view of the patio captures the Waymire Residence's classic midcentury style, as the home appears to almost take flight from its hillside setting.
The covered porch wraps around the east and south sides of the home to overlook Teton views, as well as the pond and creek.
Covered porches overlook prominent views, while deep roof overhangs provide protection against the region's unforgiving weather.
All four zones open up to covered cedar-lined decks, which maximize California’s great landscape and cooling cross breezes.
"The panoramic that wraps the house differs significantly on each side, such that the perception and experience of the place changes dramatically as one turns and moves around," add the architects.
Robust and low-maintenance metal mesh—which offers both solar and privacy control—has been chosen for the screens.
The outdoor space fully enables indoor/outdoor living.
