Porch Design for Your DC, MD, or VA Home
Ultimate Porch Design: Bring the Outdoors In
A porch is practical way to add livable space to your home. It is a space that merges the outdoors and the indoors into one room, providing you and your family with a place to enjoy a meal al fresco without the threat of bugs or intense sun. An informal rear porch can give your home a fun, stylish look, while a more formal porch can give your DC home more architectural presence.

Choosing the Right Materials for Your MD, DC, or VA Porch Addition
Porches tend to be small spaces, and any material used should be high-quality and practical for the type of porch. Because a truly good porch design or porch addition can transform the front façade of a home, it’s more appropriate to utilize high-quality materials, such as brick, flagstone, redwood columns, wrought iron railings, and a cooper-clad roof.
For a more casual rear porch, you have more flexibility. The rear porch can provide the ideal entertainment space in the privacy of your backyard or garden, or it can provide a rustic setting for meals. Here you might choose a wood floor set up on brick piers, a beadboard ceiling, simple post columns, screens to keep out insects, wood railings or even a skylight.
