What Is It About Decks?

If you’ve been to our “Featureworks” section, you’ve probably noted that Hunterstruct makes decks. What you may not know is that we love doing it.

We’ve pondered (often on the very decks we build) what it is about decks that makes them great. What is it about decks that makes them such special features of a home?

The Theory Of Leisure, or, If your home is where you hang your hat, your deck is where you toss it to the wind

There are simpler answers; BBQ, relaxation, hot tubbing, sunning. But beneath these enjoyable activities is a deeper reason for a deck: leisure. Although you may use it to make your morning rush to work (a design consideration), mostly your deck is about you and your friends and family having a good time.

This is where we come in handy. Architect Arthur Erickson suggested that of his buildings, homes were the most challenging to design. To this we would add, great decks present design challenges of their own, challenges best met by a company that understands that the theory behind a deck is the pleasure it offers.
