The Options: Wood or Stone

Wood or Stone

Option 1: TMS architects | Option 2: m{pression

John and I have definitely got the summer time bug – the one that has us itching to get outside every second we get. And with all of that time logged under the open sky, I’m dreaming outdoor spaces galore. But the question is…If I had all the money in the world (not to mention an outdoor space to SPEAK of), which material would I go with? Wood or stone?

Option 1: Wooden decks tend to be my favorite of the two. They feel just a tiny bit more homey than stone, and give off this relaxed vibe that’s hard to beat. I especially love the look when paired with dusk lantern light and the lake within easy reach, as seen above.

Option 2: While I love the rustic feeling of a wooden deck though, there’s definitely something really sophisticated about stone. Yet the thing about that expensive look is the reality of an expensive cost – but stone sure does last longer than wood. The trade off is a tough one!

I’m curious to know…
