What is beadboard, and what does it add to your outdoor living space?
Beadboard (also called a "tongue and groove" treatment) is a ceiling style that gives a routed
design to previously flat panels or flat wood coverings.
Beadboard can be made of wooden planks, beadboard panels (as in this example), or even vinyl.
Beadboard ceiling treatments give a your new home a more classic (and expensive) look and feel, without paying too much.
What is stamped concrete, and could it be a good choice for your new home porch or patio?
Stamped concrete is created by pouring slab concrete into a walkway, patio, or porch, and imprinting a pattern, texture, and/or color.
The stamp duplicates different surfaces, such as cobblestones, brick, wood, seashells, and others.
This technique offers homebuyers a durable, realistic, and easy to clean alternative to pavers or natural stone.
What other designer selections were included in this custom screen porch?
The ceiling fan in this screen porch is a lantern style in a deep bronze finish.
The railing and posts are made of weather treated Northern hardwood, stained in a natural brown that blends perfectly with the brick exterior.
French doors lead outside from the great room.
