This covered porch is spacious enough for a large dining table and chairs as well as another grouping of chairs in front of the hearth. For the porch ceiling, we used Synergywood, a beautiful, rich, prefinished wood ceiling. We installed 8 can lights in the ceiling and 3 ceiling fans, given the size of the space. We also ran all the electric required so the homeowners can install their hot tub behind the fireplace in the near future.

This beautiful Eze Breeze 3 season room looks like a very natural and original extension of the existing home! Archadeck of Columbus achieved a cohesive aesthetic by matching the shingles of the new structure to those original to the home. Low maintenance, high-quality materials go into the construction of our Upper Arlington Eze Breeze porches. The knee wall of this 3 season room boasts Hardie Panels and the room is trimmed in Boral. The gorgeous, dark bronze Eze Breeze windows add dramatic contrast to the light siding and trim. A matching Eze Breeze cabana door was an obvious choice for this project, offering operable windows for ultimate comfort open or closed.

The existing deck did not get used because of the hot afternoon sun so they decided to build a screened in porch primarily as an entertaining and dining space. A lot of research was done to make sure "outdoor" products were used that would stand the test of time and not get damaged by the elements. The porch was enlarged from the original deck and is 16' x 28' and serves as a lounging and dining area. A key component was making the porch look like it was a part of the house. We used black paint on the doors, window frames and trim for high contrast and personality to the space. Pressure treated wood was used for the decking. The ceiling was constructed with headboard and 1 x 6 inch trim to look like beams. Adding the trim to the top and painting the molding black gave the room an interesting design detail. The interior wood underneath the screens is yellow pine in a tongue and groove design and is chair-rail height to provide a child safe wall. The screens were installed from the inside so maintenance would be easy from the inside and would avoid having to get on a ladder for any repairs. Photo Credit: Emily Followill Photography

Eclectic Backyard Verandah Design Ideas

A eclectic verandah requires careful planning because it is here that you transition from the outside of your home to the inside. A roofed and open, or partly open, portion of a house, a verandah is more than just an entryway to your house. It is here you can play games, sit on a swing chair while sipping lemonade, chat to neighbours, and watch the world go by. Browse the photos on Houzz to see how you can breathe life back into your eclectic verandah, or build one onto your home with form and function in mind. You’ll find inspiration for Queenslander verandahs, those with flat, curved, concave and gabled roofs, as well as ideas for flooring and balustrades, to suit all styles of homes, big and small. If you want to dig a little deeper, make sure you check out the Stories or Advice section on Houzz, too.

What style of verandah should I add to my home?

This will be primarily dictated by your budget, space and overall style of your home. Typically, eclectic verandahs are integrated into a home’s roofline, so they will most likely always be a pricey renovation. Flat or skillion-roofed verandahs are popular home additions because they can be shaped to fit most house plans, or extend out to other zones, like a pool, for example. A pitched/gabled or curved roof will give you more height and a more open feel, while a concave roof looks best on a verandah attached to a period home. If you need advice, check out our directory of architects.

How can I decorate my eclectic verandah?

Your verandah decor should reflect your personality and lifestyle, but most importantly, how you will use the space. If you want it to encourage lounging and people watching, add a hammock, swing chair or daybed – the more seating you have, the more likely you are to use it with friends. Get more from your verandah by including a dining table and chairs, with some feature pendant lighting to draw attention to the zone. You could also go beyond seating, by adding the likes of a console or planters. If you’re spoilt with a view, you can also keep it utterly simple with just two comfy armchairs to sink back into. Add colour through wall hangings, potted plants, pillows and rugs, but remember to opt for fabrics that are waterproof and fade-resistant. If you're unsure, get help from a designer!
