A dining pavilion that floats in the water on the city side of the house and floats in air on the rural side of the house. There is waterfall that runs under the house connecting the orthogonal pond on the city side with the free form pond on the rural side.

This upper level covered porch, was a blank slate. The client loves color and my inpiration for the space was Palm Springs. We added vintage white rattan & yellow outdoor furniture and gold, pink & blue pops of color from pillows. I also wanted to add texture to the walls by vertically installing Veradek panels that were painted navy blue.

This 1960s in-town home on a hill needed some refreshing. The clients wanted to make the lower level more liable, so we divided the space into a family room, office, and work-out room, added recessed lighting, new hardwood flooring, an extra-wide barn door (which required that the hardware be reinforced). The stairs, which had been in bad shape, with uneven heights and depths, required complete replacements. We also added lots of outdoor living space, with a screened porch and a step-down, deck with gas fire pit.

Cozy screened in porch is perfect for dining outdoors or as a sitting area. An essential feature of any cabin in the woods. Contrasting, light pine ceiling opens up the space.

Oak trees line the back of the home along the hillside. One of the challenges facing this project was creating harmony with the geological features of the property.

Midcentury Verandah Design Ideas

A midcentury verandah requires careful planning because it is here that you transition from the outside of your home to the inside. A roofed and open, or partly open, portion of a house, a verandah is more than just an entryway to your house. It is here you can play games, sit on a swing chair while sipping lemonade, chat to neighbours, and watch the world go by. Browse the photos on Houzz to see how you can breathe life back into your midcentury verandah, or build one onto your home with form and function in mind. You’ll find inspiration for Queenslander verandahs, those with flat, curved, concave and gabled roofs, as well as ideas for flooring and balustrades, to suit all styles of homes, big and small. If you want to dig a little deeper, make sure you check out the Stories or Advice section on Houzz, too.

What style of verandah should I add to my home?

This will be primarily dictated by your budget, space and overall style of your home. Typically, midcentury verandahs are integrated into a home’s roofline, so they will most likely always be a pricey renovation. Flat or skillion-roofed verandahs are popular home additions because they can be shaped to fit most house plans, or extend out to other zones, like a pool, for example. A pitched/gabled or curved roof will give you more height and a more open feel, while a concave roof looks best on a verandah attached to a period home. If you need advice, check out our directory of architects.

How can I decorate my midcentury verandah?

Your verandah decor should reflect your personality and lifestyle, but most importantly, how you will use the space. If you want it to encourage lounging and people watching, add a hammock, swing chair or daybed – the more seating you have, the more likely you are to use it with friends. Get more from your verandah by including a dining table and chairs, with some feature pendant lighting to draw attention to the zone. You could also go beyond seating, by adding the likes of a console or planters. If you’re spoilt with a view, you can also keep it utterly simple with just two comfy armchairs to sink back into. Add colour through wall hangings, potted plants, pillows and rugs, but remember to opt for fabrics that are waterproof and fade-resistant. If you're unsure, get help from a designer!
