Updating exterior of 80’s contemporary Home
Comments (27)I also found another project I did, where they used wood for the decking, and top railing cap with feeney cable rail as well. White timber tech post sleeves. I made a pergola to go over the deck and they bought one of these really cool colored sunsail awning to go onto. Like someone else mentioned the side stairs could be better with divided landings, and wider. As far as the siding I know its very expensive but hardy plank would last the longest with minimal maintenance. I also think that if something was done with bottom of deck, either columns, enclosed porch with deck underneath would change the whole appearance of the house, along with different rails....See More80s House Needing Curb Appeal
Comments (18)You may think about having 2 striking exterior lanterns flanking the door, as opposed to 1 large lantern on the left. We are the oldest open flame/electric copper lighting company in the U.S. and hand make every one of our fixtures in New Orleans, LA. We have hundreds of different lighting combinations and offer a complimentary design service. From your pictures, the French Quarter on gooseneck bracket or original bracket, and Coach House on tudor scroll bracket are all lovely options for this application. Feel free to email us pictures of your space and we will be happy to make style and scale recommendations. Happy renovating! -Lindsey @ Bevolo...See More80s Contemporary

Comments (17)I really like your contemporary house and the original color, and I agree about updating to a modern, mostly glass door. We are amazed how much a modern door changed the look of our 80s house, both from the curb and from inside!...See MoreBeverlyFLADeziner
