The contrasting elements of composite decking and lush green grass create a harmonious balance, while a freestanding pergola provides both shade and an architectural focal point. If you prefer a minimalistic design, be inspired by this space’s clean, straight lines and open spaces.

#4: Enclosed Deck with Skylights

When it comes to deck covering ideas, this is one of our favorites. Step into your own oasis of tranquility with an enclosed deck featuring skylights. Natural light creates a warm and inviting atmosphere while offering a seamless connection to the outdoors. Imagine curling up in the cozy seating area, basking in the soft glow of sunlight while being protected from the elements. Blankets and pillows in various patterns add texture, while a built-in fireplace offers warmth and ambiance.

#5: Enclosed Deck Next to the Pool

Create the ultimate outdoor oasis with an enclosed deck nestled next to your pool. It’s one of the enclosed deck ideas that offer the best of both worlds — a sense of privacy and defined boundaries while providing an open and inviting gathering space. With a comfortable lounging chair next to the pool, oversized wall art in one seating area, and a large flat-screen television in another, there’s plenty of space and options for everyone.

#10: Covered Deck with a Gazebo

A gazebo on a deck provides many benefits, from offering shade and protection from the elements to creating an elegant focal point in your outdoor space. You can relax, dine, or entertain guests in a cozy and intimate setting with a gazebo. 

What we love most about this design is the collection of angles and curves throughout the entire deck that draws you into each space. When exploring gazebo options, keep in mind that curved and angled options are available and can help you create more visual interest in your overall design.

#11: Covered Deck with a Contrasting Color

A covered deck with a contrasting color scheme creates a visually striking and dynamic outdoor space.

The black trim further enhances the contrast, creating a modern and sophisticated look.

In this design, the lighting is concentrated in the covered seating area, acting as a focal point that draws guests in. Consider this option if you want to extend the usability of your outdoor space and create a warm and welcoming ambiance for gatherings and relaxation alike.

#13: Covered Deck by the Pool

Having a covered deck near your pool offers the best of both worlds: a separate space for relaxation and a convenient connection to the pool area. With the deck slightly distanced from the pool, you can enjoy a tranquil retreat to lounge, dine, or engage in various activities without the constant splashing and noise. 

This design offers visual interest by incorporating a checkered pattern with pavers and grass. The wicker furniture can withstand splashes and cannonballs, which is ideal for a poolside seating arrangement.

#14: Multi-Level Covered Deck

When exploring different covered deck attached to house plans, consider options that include multi-level covered decks. Relax in one of the several seating arrangements on the lower deck, dine on the upper covered level, or entertain guests in any of the separate zones while enjoying the shade and protection from the elements. 

Consider this option for versatility, elegance, and an enhanced outdoor experience. To create a cohesive space despite the size, incorporate a single color scheme throughout, as this homeowner does with deep blue and splashes of coral.

#15: Enclosed Deck with Porch Fan

An enclosed deck with a porch fan brings comfort and relief to your outdoor living space. The gentle breeze the fan creates helps to circulate the air, keeping you cool on hot summer days. It also helps to deter insects. 

This deck design keeps the entire space light and breezy with clean lines and light colors. Whether lounging with a book, hosting a gathering, or simply unwinding with a refreshing beverage, a fan adds relaxation and tranquility to your enclosed porch.

#16: Front Porch Covered Deck

A front porch-covered deck is an inviting entryway to your home. It offers a place to greet guests, enjoy a morning cup of coffee, or watch the world go by. In this design, carefully planned landscaping surrounds the deck and extends to the porch. There’s also symmetry throughout, from the double staircases on each side to the plants on each side of the door to the lighting above.

Consider a front porch-covered deck to enhance your home's curb appeal while providing a functional and charming outdoor area for everyday enjoyment.

#17: Small Enclosed Deck

This cozy nook offers a charming and intimate outdoor retreat that provides privacy and tranquility. Despite its smaller size, a small enclosed deck can still be versatile, accommodating seating arrangements, potted plants, and decorative touches. The angle of this design shows that it’s possible to create multiple, separate seating arrangements despite being tight on space. Keeping everything square, from the seating to the decks to the fire pit, also creates a cohesive look.

Consider this space for moments of solitude, like reading a book, enjoying tea, or even entertaining close friends.

#18: Enclosed Deck with Fireplace

An enclosed deck with a fireplace creates an inviting and cozy outdoor living space that can be enjoyed throughout the year.
