Decking

The roof deck has a commanding view. “We have friends out here in the summer and stay too long drinking wine,” says Bradley.

The Conine family engineered the stainless-steel chain-mail mesh curtain system themselves using bedsheets to mock up the design. In the final version, a sunscreen with grommets from Whiting & Davis blocks the blazing sun while standing up to the strong winds of the Jackson Hole valley.

Wright and Keffer (standing) hang out on their deck with Bolander, who lives just across the road. The chairs, designed by Bolander, are upholstered in Sunbrella fabric.

The large terrace on the upper level, which contains the house's bedrooms, is nearly 968 square feet.

An L-shaped deck wraps around the house's ground level, creating a place for entertaining and taking in the scenery.

The broad deck and seating area are perfect for the Mediterranean climate and invite guests outdoors.

The newly expanded kitchen/dining area opens to the deck via doors from Hope’s Windows. There a pair of Butterfly chairs from Circa50 joins water-resistant resin Daniel planters by Crescent Garden. “So now, after essentially scooping out the entire interior of the previous house, we’ve got a great place—and, by far, the best-looking backside (of a house) in northwest Washington, DC,” Daniel says.

Floor-to-ceiling pivot doors and flushed skirting make the boxy space appear much higher and larger.

Decking extends from the living space, adding outdoor space to the Hollywood prefab.

New Deck

The new, protected deck frames the views, and also has a built-in bench and Electrolux grill, with a mosaic tile backsplash.
