L-Shape Bench

Built-in outdoor benches like this one provide plenty of seating for al fresco entertaining. Built around an established fir tree, it contributes to the structure's clean, angular sensibility, and the linear slats quickly disperse rain.


Lattice Seating Area

A need for privacy inspired this unique deck with a curved-trellis seating area. The built-in bench follows the curve of the lattice and establishes the space as a destination for relaxation.




Handcrafted Bench

Constructed from scrap cedar, a built-in bench provides a convenient, custom-made element that contributes to the deck's well-crafted character.





Low Seating

Low built-in benches function as seating and an edge barrier for this railing-free deck.

Stone-Wall Seating

This stone wall provides additional seating and spirals into a small water feature that's 18 inches in diameter.









A Deck for All Seasons

Don't abandon your deck when spring and summer end. A fire pit is the perfect place to warm cold hands on a chilly night and to roast marshmallows for a toasty treat. The benches behind the fire pit are a great alternative to railings; they provide extra seating without blocking the view of the lawn and garden.



Garden Seating

Two built-in wood benches provide the perfect spot for enjoying the lush garden that crowns the courtyard. A fan on a cantilevered beam cools the seating area on hot summer days.
