Message: [QUOTE="BPT2Storrs, post: 3579306, member: 7746"] Timely thread. I’m currently looking to have a deck installed, as I only have an elevated three season room and a deteriorating patio underneath. I’m considering an elevated deck that would allow for access from my kitchen but have also thrown around the idea of keeping the stairs that currently lead to the grass but to a new floating/platform deck, which I assume would be a cheaper option. Does anyone have experience with a floating/platform? My biggest concern is I don’t want a plain looking space, I’d like some nice design incorporated into it, such as levels/tiers, etc. I also have a very woodsy backyard with a Steep slope that would Likely require railing. How did you all go about designing your deck? Any software out there that can assist? [/QUOTE]
