Small Modern Deck Design Ideas

This is an example of a small modern rooftop deck in Paris with a container garden.

Tiny house on wheels designed and built for a subtropical climate by The Tiny House Company in Brisbane, Australia. The deck shown in the foreground is modular and designed and built to be dismantled or assembled in under 2 hours. The legs are adjustable to suit various sites and the deck bolts onto the house with flashing included for a water-tight seal.

We were approached by renowned property developers to design a rooftop terrace for a luxury penthouse let in a prime London location. The contemporary penthouse wraps around a compact box terrace that offers breathtaking views of the cityscape. Our design extends the interior aesthetic outdoors to harmonise both spaces and create the ultimate open-plan indoor-outdoor setting.

A Family Retreat in the Mackenzie Basin On a 40-acre site above the Ōhau Canal, this home creates space for a family of four to hunker down together and tune out from the demands of everyday life. With vast skies and the Ben Ōhau mountains as a backdrop, it offers both refuge and connection — a place to slow down and share time as a family. The design embraces simplicity of form, fostering relaxed living and easy-going functionality. Behind this calm, however, lies a carefully engineered response to the Mackenzie Basin’s extremes: winds exceeding 200km/h, heavy snowfall, and scorching summer heat. Durability, resilience, and comfort were at the heart of every decision. Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) provide both rigidity and thermal performance, paired with airtight detailing to maintain a healthy and comfortable interior throughout the seasons. Collaborating closely with engineers and suppliers, the structure, cladding, and glazing were all finely tuned to withstand the harsh conditions. A bold yet simple material palette was chosen with longevity in mind, anticipating that the house will weather gracefully and settle into its landscape over time. The result is a retreat that holds strong against the elements, while offering its family a warm, enduring home — deeply grounded in one of Aotearoa’s most dramatic environments.

A living green wall flanks the entrance to the steps to bring more planting close to the house and covered a tumbled down wall that cannot be removed. The garden has been broken up into separate rooms allowing for secluded dining near the house, a second level for seating and relaxation and a final lawned area for lying on the grass in summer.
