The design is designed in two levels where one level serves as the mani sitting area, and the level  one step below caters to the access seating area with a built-in bench. The main feature of the deck is the built-in play area with the attached slide and climbing structures for my daughter. The choice of grey stain compliments the siding of the house. The color of the stain has a dark and lighter grey shades in order to identify and provide a sense of different spatial quality.
