Jack Tremblay in Deck Builder
1. In the winter of 2004 I was contacted by
Anne W. West of Deck Builder Magazine.
I was happy to help them on an article
dealing with the relationship between a
Landscape Architect and the Deck
Contractor.
I didn’t expect them to showcase two of
my best projects that included major
deck designs and installation.
The following is the above mentioned
article with added content from my
archives to help communicate the role of
a landscape Architect on a project.
Thank you in advance for your interest.

The design included
an outdoor Spa. We
used a freestanding,
self-contained unit.
Then we ‘sank’ it in
the ground using
stone retaining walls
and composite
decking.
O’Hara and
Company of
Ashland MA did the
installation from
design to
completion.

the structure rather than the front or street side of the house.
The entrance deck was designed to allow plenty of room for greeting and
saying good-bye to guests. It’s an important ritual for entertaining….
The decking

The pattern is
similar to the
