Compact Deck  This plan contains an attractive deck design that two handy persons with intermediate building skills can construct in a weekend. Build it with versatile pressure-treated Southern Pine lumber and your new deck will provide many years of outdoor living enjoyment.
 

Ground-Level Deck  Decks can work wonders in many different ways. They can be contemporary in style, yet simple and natural. They blend home and landscape with broad, inviting vistas creating a feeling of freedom and expansiveness and offer an oasis of comfort in the open air. Sometimes the best room of the house is outside on the wood deck.

Play Deck with a Sandbox or Kiddy Pool  What could be more fun for your kids and relaxing for you than a backyard play deck? You can enjoy the warm sun and enjoy a glass of lemonade on the deck while your kids play in the sand or water.
