Simkins deck

Type: Residential

Location: Chicago

Description: The Tonka Group designed this two-tier urban deck that transforms a city backyard into a private, multi-functional sanctuary designed to filter out the noise of the street. The upper level serves as a social hub for grilling and dining, while the sunken lower level offers a secluded lounge anchored by a fire pit and lush integrated greenery. By combining sleek metal railings and horizontal privacy slats with low-maintenance decking materials, this design creates the perfect balance between a entertaining space and a quiet escape.
