The Ridge Deck – Elevated Timber Terrace with Scenic Views

Design Brief:
Construct a multi-level timber decking platform designed to take full advantage of a sloped garden with scenic hillside views. The design should blend seamlessly into the natural terrain while creating a durable, functional outdoor living area. Key design goals include:
• Elevated, pressure-treated timber deck supported by a robust subframe with horizontal slatted skirting.
• Integrated handrail system with vertical balustrades to ensure safety without compromising sightlines.
• Central staircase access connecting the upper and lower deck areas, with level transitions for comfort.
• Durable, grooved decking boards for slip resistance and visual consistency.
• Strategic positioning for panoramic views, ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, or relaxation.

This outdoor structure should enhance usability of a challenging garden slope, providing a safe, attractive, and low-maintenance solution that adds both function and value to the property.
