28 Creative Deck Ideas That Inspire Alfresco Living
From simple decor tips to renovation inspiration.
KARYN MILLET
There's a lot you can do with your deck, whether you're ready for a full-on overhaul with new flooring materials (hello, colorful tiles or ipê wood), a pool, or you're just giving it a simple refresh for summer. These 28 well-designed decks will provide plenty of outdoor decor inspiration to help get you started. Ahead, find everything you need to know about deck design, from choosing outdoor lighting to creating visual flow between your home and yard to selecting the best materials. Spoiler: You're probably going to want to start with string lights.

Prep It for Dinner
Optimize your deck for dining and conversation with outdoor lighting and a fully-stocked bar cart. This deck designed by Emily Henderson is styled with stackable metal chairs and a spacious wood table for a classic, low-maintenance look.

Protect It With a Cover
The partial shade from the pergola ensures that this deck is the best of both worlds for outdoor dining and gardening. This deck, attached to a home designed by Aamir Khandwala, is covered with a complementary white pergola for a modern approach that pops against the green landscape but blends in with the exterior of the house. It's the perfect place for some flower arranging or to use as a dining space.

Add an Area Rug and Canopy
Since most decks feature wooden materials, they can feel a little cold and bare. Warm yours up with an outdoor area rug and a daybed. Here, Vanessa Alexander of Alexander Design chose a a large daybed with an ethereal canopy and tropical palm trees to set the mood.

Hang Plants
If you don't have a ton of space, fill it with the coziest items you can find and add extra vertical space to hang plants from instead of taking up valuable ground space. This area by Malcolm Simmons features hanging plants, cozy throws, and layered outdoor rugs, making it the ideal spot to sit with a cup of coffee and a new book.

Extend Decking to the Pool Area
Frame your pool with the same material as your deck for easier maintenance and a lovely visual flow as Robert McKinley Studio did here. Beautify the area with greenery, whether it's a grassy lawn or a line of trees.

Make It a Mudroom
Optimize an enclosed deck at a beach house by installing wall hooks for towels and other things that might make a mess indoors. Then, add a couple of chairs for an outdoor reading nook or hang-out spot, as Romanek Design Studio did here.

Complement the House's Architecture
"I was worried the pool might be too close to the house, but I love it," says Eric Olsen, the architect of this California home. "When we open the doors, it feels like one big room." Take a closer look at the left corner and you'll see the outdoor shower peeking out too.

Opt for Tile
This deck is proof that tile can trump wood in an outdoor space. It;s easier to cleans and looks a lot more colorful and fun. Adding lanterns, textiles, and vines will finish things off nicely.

Invest In a Swimming Pool
Just because you don't have a backyard doesn't mean you can't have a pool. Use your roof deck area for poolside lounging and sunning. Also, remember that throw pillows are the perfect way to introduce hints of bold color.

Hang a Swing Bench
Swings aren't limited to porches—they can fit right in on the deck, too, if you have a partial covering or anything to hang them from, as seen here on a front deck by Kystral Matthews Design. This is the spot everyone will be fighting over on your deck.
11 of 28
Consider an Outdoor Fire Pit
Install a fire pit on your deck for a cozier vibe out in the open air. To channel this modern coastal aesthetic, opt for neutral hues, modern lines, and graphic throw pillows.

Build a Sunken Jacuzzi
So you can't fit a pool in your backyard, but who needs that when you can have a jacuzzi instead? This small deck by Tamsin Johnson Interiors features a sleek in-ground hot tub that blends right in, as a raised one might make the area feel too cramped. The sunken style also creates the illusion of more open space than a raised hot tub would on a small deck.
13 of 28
Paint the Floor
If you have a beach house, consider painting your deck with blue and white stripes for a classic nautical vibe. Add bistro chairs and a croquet set to complete the playful look.
14 of 28
Add a Shower or Tub
If you thought outdoor showers were a dreamy addition to decks and yards, you'll love the idea of an outdoor bathtub even more. The wood wall enclosure creates privacy while still allowing the occupants to enjoy the breeze at this island oasis by Ishka Designs.
15 of 28
Give It Vacation Vibes
No matter where you live, your deck can help you feel like you're in the tropics. Paint your deck rails white, opt for rattan furniture, and add a seagrass rug and a potted palm. You'll practically feel the island breeze.
16 of 28
Create a Sense of Place
If you're in a warm, dry region, line your deck with varying shapes and sizes of cacti and succulents for a Southwestern desert feel.
17 of 28
Focus on the View
This minimalist deck and sleek infinity pool design set the scene and allow our eyes to focus on the gorgeous, expansive vineyard view ahead. Those loungers are the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine at sunset.
18 of 28
Create Cohesion and Flow
If your living room or bedroom opens up onto your deck, make sure you decorate with materials and colors that compliment the interior design scheme. A small step between the indoor and outdoor spaces will also cue the environmental shift.
19 of 28
Make It Multi-Level
While that green spiral staircase is stealing the spotlight in this outdoor haven, the real showstopper here is multi-level deck design. Each nook can be used for something different, whether it's cocktails on the intimate built-in bench or lounging on the open deck's chaises.

Incorporate Plenty of Greenery
Feel like you're in the jungle (minus the humidity and bugs) by filling your deck with plenty of potted plants. Then add a coffee table, pendant light, and ample seating for a comfortable lounging spot that rivals the living room.
21 of 28
Make It Modern
Set up a sitting area on your deck as well as an alfresco dining area. Face the comfortable and stylish chairs outward so you can soak in the view.
22 of 28
Don't Be Afraid of Color
Draw our attention upward with eye-catching painted staircase risers—it's such an easy and impactful way to incorporate color. We also love how the etched wooden panel between the ground and the deck is the same material as the door, introducing texture and making the space feel cohesive.
23 of 28
Build an Overhang
If your deck juts out far away from the main structure, consider building an overhang above the sitting area at the end of the space. This will give it shade and add dimension. Using natural materials will enhance the outdoorsy vibes.
24 of 28
Frame It With a Bench
Keep your deck clear and open if it's at the front of your house. To add some visual intrigue and seating, build a continuous bench that wraps around the border of the deck.
25 of 28
Try a Glass Railing
Opt for a glass barrier instead of solid or fenced-off railings—it's a subtle yet transformative design decision. This will make your deck feel like it leads straight into the sky ahead and keep the views unobstructed, as exemplified in this Arent & Pyke-designed home.
26 of 28
Make It Comfortable
If you want your deck to feel like a second living room, plush seating, ottomans, cozy pillows and throws, and an area rug are a must.
27 of 28
Enhance the Architectural Style
A sleek, modern railing around the deck will frame the outdoor space beautifully. The angular shape of this deck also does a lovely job enhancing the architectural lines of the home.
28 of 28
Ditch the Rails
If the deck is low enough, you could just ditch the rails altogether. This will create a nice feeling of openness. And using the same color and/or finish for your shingles, deck floor, and stairs will ensure a nice visual flow and sense of harmony.
