It is important to have
plans drawn up for your decking scheme. Here are just a few ideas to whet your
appetite. Never forget that the deck should be an important link between house and
garden. A good deck plan will take that into account.
Like it or not, most decks
are based upon rectangles. Deckboards are after all rectangles. However,
with a bit of insight and innovation, you can soon turn those rectangles
into all manner of shapes. Anything from a basic square to a full
circular deck can be accomplished, either with innovative planting
plans, or by some basic design ideas with your future deck.
An initial deck plan can be done
on any scrap of paper, then follow it through by some scribbles on a sheet of
graph paper to get the dimensions and proportions of your deck project right.
The detailed plans of your
decking project will take a bit more time - and expertise. You will probably
know someone who can help with this maybe?
We give you some decking project
ideas over the next few pages. |
