Inspiration for a large contemporary backyard deck in Chicago with an outdoor kitchen and no cover.

Urban Outdoor Living Space

Contemporary Deck, Chicago

This urban backyard oasis features 3’ by 3’ bluestone flagstone with blue-chip joints that seamlessly set the stage for backyard entertaining. In order to achieve greenery all year long, we planted Boxwood, Rhododendron, Arborvitae and Pachysandra. And, in the hopes of creating privacy in a bustling Chicago neighborhood, we installed a wood privacy fence, Japanese Maples, a Birch and a Spruce tree.

Instead of a full deck, I love the idea of a shallow deck with a wide set of stairs to a seating area with pergola.
