The wonderful climate we enjoy in Australia allows us to enjoy the great outdoors, especially at home, where we can create our own little paradise as a place for family rest and relaxation. Making the best use of available outdoor living space is the best way to create a warm and inviting ambience, and having a custom-made deck or pergola built is an ideal way to do that.

Attractive Garden Features
A well-designed pergola really does add character to any outdoor living space, and there are specialist companies that design and build quality decks and pergolas to the client’s specifications. If you would like to know more about these attractive garden features, an online search will help you locate nearby supplier, and with their expertise and your concept, the perfect outdoor living space awaits! You might fancy a waterfall, or a stream that flows into pond full of exotic carp and goldfish, or even a fountain, which could be a central feature, and while you are renovating the garden, installing a retractable awning gives you ideal shading.
Timber Decking
There are a range of seasoned timbers that can be used for decking, and with the right treatment, the timber is protected from the harsh elements and will last for many years. There are no off the shelf solutions, rather the supplier would look at the available space you have, and use your ideas to create the perfect platform for your garden. Such a company would have many images of fine examples or previous projects, which might give you some inspiration, failing that, a Google image search would definitely give you a few ideas.
Multi Level Outdoor Living Spaces
Having several levels really does make a big difference, and with a nice crazy paving pathway and timber arches with flowers attached, you have a great outdoor space in which to relax. If you consult with an experienced company, the sky is the limit regarding design, and with a few dry stone walls and trellis, your outdoor living space will be complete.
Working to Budget
Once the design has been agreed upon, the decking supplier would quote you an all-inclusive price for the project, and if you are happy, they will work out a start date that fits in with your calendar. Typically, a deck, pergola and a few other features could be completed within 2 or 3 days, leaving your garden ready for the coming summer.
Garden Furniture
Once the decking has been installed, you can begin to think about some new garden furniture, and there are online suppliers of handwoven wicker resin chairs and sofas, which make for the perfect outdoor relaxation area. LED outdoor lighting will make your garden come to life in the evenings, and installing a few ground-level lights will certainly add a touch of elegance.
If your outdoor living space has seen better days, commission a specialist company to design and install timber decking and perhaps a pergola to add a touch of natural beauty to the area.
