More Complementary Color Schemes for Your Composite Decking
In previous blog entries, we have explored distinctive design ideas for different home styles and complementary Envision® composite decking aesthetics. Today in the Envision® blog, we explore three new home design styles, and we deliver more ideas to make every deck design beautiful. Read on for more design ideas and advice from Envision®.
Composite Decking to Complement a Townhouse Home Design
Townhomes come in a variety of styles, they share a few defining features. Townhomes are adjoined with their neighbors in a row. Townhomes are generally two or more stories, with the kitchen and living space on the first floor and bedrooms on upper floors. Generally, townhomes have limited lawn space, so it is important to make the most of every square foot of outdoor space available to the homeowner.
A small yard makes it all the more important to be creative when designing outdoor living spaces. The backyard areas in townhomes often open into indoor spaces such as kitchens and living rooms, so a great way to make the outdoor living space feel larger is to extend the indoor aesthetic outdoors with decking designs that offer the comforts and amenities of indoor living. Consider a rich color and deep textured woodgrain that complements the interior design of the home — Rustic Walnut is a beautiful choice that will seamlessly transition interior and exterior designs.
Composite Decking to Complement a Victorian Home Design
Victorian architectural style is characterized by classic Old World design elements, including Romanesque columns and ornate Gothic details in trim, railings, and roof lines. Victorian homes often feature multiple porch and deck areas, such as porticos, balconies and terraces. The color palette of Victorian homes is often neutral, such as eggshell, grey, or pastel shades of blue.
The variety of deck areas make Victorian homes ideal for inspired outdoor living space design. Outdoor furniture with soft textured fabrics and cushions is a great way to bring indoor comforts outdoors. Ambient, dimmable LED lighting is recommended as well. To complement a neutral color palette, consider a delicately textured, multi-hued style from the Envision Distinction® Collection, such as Grey Wood.
Composite Decking to Complement a Farmhouse Home Design
Farmhouse home design is characterized by broad home face with pitched rooflines and a covered porch that runs the length of the front of the home. Farmhouse homes often feature light color palettes, such as eggshell white and pastel blues and tans. Light decking colors, large covered porches, and accentuated railing styles are excellent choices for a farmhouse deck design.
Farmhouse porches are often used as transitional spaces between several indoor rooms, for example, two bedrooms and a living room may share access to a single porch that stretches across the length of the home. So it is recommended to blend the style of indoor design with the style of outdoor design to unify the transitional spaces. This can be accomplished by including a vibrant accent color in both indoor and outdoor designs, complemented by subtly colored Envision® decking products, such as Weathered Wicker from the Envision Inspiration® Collection.
