Looking to upgrade your back yard? Well we've got 6 simple deck designs, but built in beautifully landscaped yards. These decks aren't just about functionality; they're about creating a vibe, a mood. Imagine stepping out to a space that blends seamlessly with the outdoors, where the boundaries between inside and outside blur. A place for morning coffees or to have dinner outdoors. These decks all use simple landscaping materials such as pavers, stone & rock to incorporate your deck into your yard by building pathways and garden beds around the deck itself. When using TuffBlock deck blocks, you can build the deck portion in a matter of hours when the deck itself is a simple rectangle. But when blended into the yard with some simple landscaping tricks, it elevates it to a whole new level. Hopefully these inspire you and get you thinking about how you could transform your own yard! This first deck shows how you can build out from your home to create a patio deck, and extend the living space in your house. This type of deck is perfect for an outdoor living area. Think about using stones around the deck to frame it. The symetrical plants at either corner of the deck along with the L shaped couch make this a perfect place to sit and enjoy the outdoors that leads perfect out to your garden. This type of deck is also perfect in winter where the stone and paved pathway allow you to stay out of the mud whilst still using the space. This deck is similar, but is floating in the yard as a stand alone platform. A floating deck platform is a great place to have dinner during warm summer nights. Adding pavers to your lawn is a great way to connect the deck to the house, and the gravel/stone around the deck is great for hiding the deck blocks under the deck. This deck is built into the garden bed at the end of the yard. The pathway connects is seamlessly to the house, and allows you to sit in your yard whilst enjoying the nature around you. A two toned deck is always a nice touch. A floating ground deck is perfect for a bbq and inviting friends over for a feast! Building on a slope yard? Well TuffBlock allows you to build using posts at various heights for a deck like this. Consider creating a bench as part of your floating deck for an extra place to sit. You can also build a firepit next to your deck to warm you up in the evenings! We hope these six stunning examples of floating decks have sparked your creativity and inspired you to embark on your own backyard transformation. Each deck, with its unique blend of simplicity and style, demonstrates how when using deck blocks, like TuffBlock, a single day's effort building a floating deck can result in a breathtaking outdoor sanctuary. Whether it's a cozy corner for your morning coffee or a spacious platform for social gatherings, the possibilities are endless. Now it's your turn to bring these ideas to life! Grab your tools, choose your design, and start building. Remember, the beauty of these decks lies not just in their construction, but in how they harmoniously integrate with the natural landscape of your yard. We can't wait to see the incredible spaces you create, transforming your outdoor areas into personal havens of relaxation and joy. Happy building!

Thank you for shopping with RapidArc Designs!🛍 ◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽◽ ▪▪▪ RapidArc SHOP POLICIES and IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES and INFORMATION ▪▪▪ 🔎 PLEASE take a moment to review the detailed information on SHOP POLICIES, SHIPPING, POWDER COAT FINISHES (disclosures, care & maintenance), MOUNTING IDEAS below which address our customers most FAQ's...You will find them most helpful, thank you!!👇👇👇 ---POWDER COAT FINISHES and RAW METAL--- 📎 All of our items excluding the raw metal options are powder coated. We use a high-grade powder coat finish to color our items. Powder coating provides a beautiful long-lasting finish but like most household items, it will require proper care and maintenance. All items should be handled with care. 📎 Our powder coat manufacturer recommends that a clear coat sealant be added over the powder coat at least once every 1-2 years for any products that are used in ordinary outdoor conditions in order to extend the life of the finish. 📎 AN ADDITIONAL CLEAR-COAT SEALANT WILL BE REQUIRED FOR ITEMS BEING DISPLAYED IN EXTREME OUTDOOR CONDITIONS - All of our powder coat finishes are weather resistant for normal indoor/outdoor use, but if your item will be in prolonged, intense direct sunlight (ie. desert type conditions☀🌵), or if you live within 75 miles of a marine (salt) body of water (ie. beach/coastal type conditions☀️🌊), you will need to apply an additional clear-coat sealant to your Metal Art to extend the life of your powder coat finish and protect it from premature weathering/chalking/rusting/corroding if your item will be displayed outside in either of these extreme climatic/geographic conditions. PLEASE NOTE: Saltwater/salty sea air is known to be quite corrosive even in a matter of months and it will require a periodic application of a clear-coat sealant at least once per year to maintain the integrity of the powder coat finish. (Possibly more often in some cases***) 💥 WE OFFER an additional UV/Chemical/Corrosion resistant Clear Powder-Coating Add-On! If your Metal Art will be exposed to intense conditions (mentioned above) or if you simply want to extend the longevity of your finish, we will coat your item with UV/Chemical/Corrosion resistant Clear Powder-Coating 'in house' for a flat-fee...you can get more information or order by clicking the listing link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1209295761/add-on-uv-clear-powder-coating 📎 If your powder coat chips be sure to IMMEDIATELY touch up the spot with a clear coat sealant to reseal the raw metal underneath to prevent rusting. 📎 Raw Steel is bare un-coated steel. RAW STEEL CAN RUST even if kept indoors. If the metal is exposed to moisture or humidity it will rust, even inside the shipping box. Refunds/replacements will not be given for rusting or scratched raw steel items. 📎 FOR RAW METAL ONLY SIGNS - Raw Metal without a clear coat WILL rust and/or weather, even indoors. The clear coat sealant will protect the sign from rusting and weathering. If you ordered a Raw Metal Only sign and would like us to add a clear coat to your item, please order the UV Sealant Add-On within 24 hours of placing your original order. ALL RAW METAL may show flaws and imperfections that naturally exist in the metal. This may include scratches, flecks, gouges, burns, rings, dark spots, etc. This can give the metal a unique, rustic, or rugged appearance that very popular in the 'Modern Farmhouse Décor' style. If you would like these characteristics covered, we recommend selecting a colored powder coat finish. Raw Metal also varies in color from light silver to black depending on the mill lot...we have no control over the color of raw metal. ----CANCELLATIONS, RETURNS & EXCHANGES---- 📌 Due to our exceedingly rapid turn-around time we DO NOT offer cancellations or changes. (ie. By the time most customers decide to cancel or make a change to their order, their item has likely already been cut) 📌 Items are custom made-to-order therefore I DON'T accept returns or exchanges BUT please contact me if you have any problems with your order. --------DAMAGED OR INCORRECT ORDERS-------- 🏷 If the item you ordered arrives defective or incorrect, PLEASE contact me through the Etsy messaging system to discuss. Please allow me to respond to your issue before leaving feedback on your order, my goal is for my customers to have a positive experience and I ask for the opportunity to make things right if my shop is at fault. 🏷 Items DAMAGED BY SHIPPING---In the event that your item is damaged during shipping we offer two options: 1.) 50% refund if the customer is willing to straighten the item themselves (applies to metal art, metal is malleable and often can be bent back into place) OR 2.) We will replace the item with a new one. {{The customer MUST send me pics through the Etsy messaging system so I can verify the damage and activate this process.}} ---------CUSTOM/PERSONALIZED ORDERS--------- 💠 Due to our rapid turn-around time, once an order is submitted it goes to production in a very short amount of time, therefore, WE CANNOT MAKE CHANGES ONCE THE ORDER IS PLACED. 💠 If ordering a custom or personalized item, it is your responsibility to READ THE PERSONALIZATION INSTRUCTIONS and please clearly & accurately provide the information required, with in the stated parameters, for us to complete the order correctly. **A good example of a clear personalization submission would be: Top line: 36082, Bottom line: OTTAWA DR, Initial: S, Name: SOUTHWORTH (example for entering personalization info for an Elaborate Monogram) **Please carefully proof-read your personalization spelling, monogram letter(s), your finish selection, size, and quantity before you submit your order because we cannot make changes once the order is placed. 💠 We do not provide free "PROOFS" or "MOCK-UPS" for custom/personalized items, excepting custom design projects, this keeps our our production rate fast and costs low so that we can offer extremely competitive prices and short lead-times. 💠 All designs are the sole property of RapidArc Designs™. -------SHIPPING AND DAYS OF OPERATION--------- ⚠️ Once the shipping provider has confirmed an order status as being "delivered" in tracking, we are not responsible for any lost, stolen, or missing packages.
