Our backyard was just dead space — a rotting wood deck that wasn't usable in the rain and no real outdoor living to speak of. Marco designed a two-level covered deck with a gas fire pit and cable railing to keep the lake views, and it completely changed how we use the house. We're out there year-round now and it was absolutely worth every penny.
