I guess this is an old posting but here are a couple of thoughts: Low barriers like railings on the windward side will cut the wind down. I noticed it on my porch which just has a wide top railing. So add railings and clear glass panels to that side of the deck. Also, add low shrubbery out in the yard like a low border or fence so the wind will go up and over it and maybe over your patio. The wind also hits the flat side of your house and 1/2 goes into the patio area. So add shrubbery on this side and maybe even a post or short wall sticking out 6" or a foot on the corner of the house to direct the wind away from the patio.

Although we have very deep eaves and lovely large decks, we don't actually have proper shade at our new house so that we can enjoy the outdoor living. Trying to resolve this. Thinking about a big shade sail further away from house where we have a big table and chairs, and perhaps decorative metal panels attached to either the roof or wall cladding on the west deck. The sun is harshest during afternoons to sunset and so far we cannot use this deck for '5 o'clock somewhere' drinks.

the photo of you chosen style would be very easy to add to your home but a narrow verandah will not be much use for anything more than a couple of chairs so my first thought would be to suggest converting the existing carport into extra indoor out door living areas with a new carport added to the side or a double steel garage towards the fence could be more cost effective OR a square deck with gabled roof (with or without a verandah along in front of the master bedroom) would have more space for a barbq table and chairs

I’m I can’t get it to upload...I will keep trying!
