Why build a porch

A porch is a structure that is equally necessary for a wooden hut and a Victorian mansion.

At the same time, in addition to the obvious aesthetic properties, the porch in your house solves a lot of other important tasks, which can be seen in the table:

Porch task	Features
Provide space connection – external and internal	The porch is a transition zone between the street and the interior of the house, providing a smooth transition from the open landscape to the closed interior. Climbing up the porch, a person, while still on the street, actually enters the territory of the house.
To be a climate buffer	The porch partially protects the entrance to the house from the wind and the scorching sun, creates a transitional microclimate at the entrance to the dwelling.
Shelter from the rain	Often the porch has a canopy that covers the entrance from rain, hail and snow. Here you can: Shake off wet clothing; Get the keys, before entering the house; Open an umbrella, in inclement weather; Shelter from the rain to get some fresh air. And by installing a bench on the porch, you can equip a great place to relax.
Protect from dirt	The porch helps reduce the amount of dirt and debris brought in from the street. A porch shoe rack and step mats keep shoes clean with every step. A floor-mounted heating cable covered with concrete or tiles, or anti-ice for the porch, help the surface dry out faster and prevent snow from accumulating in winter. When located next to the porch of the technical shower, you can wash dirty shoes or dog paws.
Store dirty and damp shoes, baskets, buckets and other items	In addition to storing shoes, you can take off your forest outerwear here to check it for ticks, and then put it away in a specially equipped closet. Make a porch for a change house to store garden or garden utensils here.
Accent entrance	The porch is an important and effective element of the composition, enriching the building. The structure draws the attention of a person to the entrance, determines its location.
Orient the entrance to the house	If there is a complex site layout or renovation, a porch can help adjust the orientation of the entrance to the building. With the help of a porch, it can be turned, for example, towards a wider space, towards the entrance to the site, creating a more convenient zone for entering the dwelling, while maintaining the location of the front door and not changing the internal layout of the house. The porch can be built on two sides, making the entrance from the side of the entrance to the territory of the site, and from the side of the garden.
Highlight the style of the house	Decorative items such as: porch railings; railing bars; lamps; columns for the porch, can emphasize the style features of the building and garden.
Organize seasonal decor	The porch can be decorated with flowers in spring and summer, fruits grown on your site and fallen yellow leaves in autumn, berries, wreaths and garlands in winter. This is a great place for the creativity of parents with children who will gladly show their imagination and decorate the house with them.
Decorate with plants	Flowers can be arranged in boxes on railings or hung between planter supports. On the porch, you can “walk” indoor plants, which are easily brought back into the house when it gets cold. A light “Mediterranean” touch is created by flowers located in pots on the stairs. And by replacing the flowers with spicy aromatic herbs, you can get additional protection against mosquitoes.
Arrange lighting	Lights on the porch look very expressive, besides they provide a person with comfort and safety. At the same time, you can place wall sconces on the sides of the front door or illuminate this area with hanging shades. A porch or stair side support can be used to mount the luminaire. To prevent the lighting from being turned on all the time, you should install a motion sensor, and to turn on the light in the evening and turn it off in the morning, install a timer or light sensor.

Ideas for the shape of the porch

To choose the right shape of the porch, which can be very diverse, you need to consider:

• Stylistic and decorative features of the house;
• Site layout;
• Functional design tasks.

The traditional porch is a covered area in front of the entrance to the house, with several steps. However, there are many variations of this design.

This could be:

• Projecting porch. This is a traditional structure that protrudes beyond the main building. Usually it is a gable, sloping or tented canopy, supported by carved pillars for the porch or simple products from any material. The staircase to it is located on one or both sides at the same time, goes directly to the front door or serves to transfer the entrance by turning it. The canopy, pillars and balustrade are a space for decoration and creative experimentation using carving and coloring;
• Porch-gallery along the perimeter of the whole house . The protruding porch, expanding, can occupy the entire facade and turn into a gallery. Such an arrangement is convenient to use from the south side in the south: the covered gallery will be able to protect the interior from the penetration of sunlight during the hottest hours of the day. And the gallery itself will be a great place to relax, where you can install chairs and even a hammock with a swing;
• Porch leading to a wide terrace . At the same time, from the porch you can immediately get into the house or onto the terrace with a seating area or a summer dining room. From the side of the terrace, you can organize an additional entrance to the building to get directly into the living room or kitchen or go down to the garden;
• Porch in a niche. This is a very expressive porch layout that is more suitable for stone architecture. At the same time, the porch seems to be buried in the volume of the house and is a niche where the front door is located. This arrangement is convenient, in the absence of sufficient space in front of the building for a projecting porch.

Tip: If the porch opens directly onto the street, its entrance should be covered with a beautiful decorative grille.

• Corner porch. With this arrangement, the design looks impressive and convenient enough for planning. In this case, the exit can be made on two sides of the building or a solid corner staircase can be installed. Such a porch can be protruding and recessed, which is open on both sides.
• Porch located on the second floor . There are houses, the entrance to which is located on the second floor:

1. On the ground floor – garage or workshop.
2. In areas with a large difference in relief.
3. If you need a second independent entrance to a separate part of the house. In this case, the main element will be a staircase, which is decorated with all sorts of options. Particular attention should be paid to its convenience – the height and width of the steps, the ergonomics of the railing, protection from rain and snow.

• Porch with an upper terrace — allows you to place an open loggia on the second floor, for which the porch will become the base;
• Cantilever awnings. This is a small, simple cantilever canopy above the entrance that can even be a simple fabric awning. Such a canopy is attached to the facade without additional supports. The design price is small, which allows it to be used for small summer houses and baths;
• Porch lower than ambient level . Sometimes the porch is below the space that surrounds it. This is possible if there is a relief area or if the entrance goes through the basement. So that the entrance is not flooded during rain, drainage is needed. In this case, a porch grating is installed at the base of the stairs. It can be located in the center of the site, if there is an appropriate slope to the drain.

Tip: When choosing the shape, type of placement of the porch and its decor, you must remember that the building meets you and guests at the entrance to the house, gives a piece of comfort to the home, softly and comfortably combines it with the surrounding space.

Design objectives

The architecture of a porch for a house, cottage or office consists of several elements:

• Canopy protecting the building from precipitation;
• Safety railing;
• Playgrounds, additional functional space outside the door of the building;
• Stairs to the platform, for easy entry.

All these details together should be a single beautiful composition, combining the stylistic solution of the design of the main building, and harmoniously linking it with the landscape of the entire site, decorating the house at the same time. The topical issue is the correct connection of these architectural elements into a single beautiful picture, when each detail of the design complements each other, creates an impeccable exterior of the building.

What other ideas you can choose for your porch will tell the video in this article.

How to choose a porch idea

Before choosing a design for your porch, you need to decide whether:

• It is in the same direction as the main building;
• The interior of the building has its own style;
• The design of the porch has something in common with the design of the site. A competent implementation of this idea will create the impression that the house and the yard are an indivisible part of a single structure.

To combine structures, you need to consider a number of connecting elements. In this case:

• It is enough to have only one common detail in the design so that there is harmony in the exterior;
• “Dilute” a heavy log house with a massive roof by arranging beautiful, openwork and light balusters for the porch;
• To preserve airiness, beauty and lightness, when making a porch made of heavy materials, a combination of chipped brick, stone and forged elements will allow;
• The combination of stone and metal is always difficult, but with a beautiful, subtle forging pattern and a transparent polycarbonate canopy, it destroys the impression of heaviness;
• The combination of the same materials, you can decorate with your own hands the railing and the frame of the canopy, made of thicker rods, with a denser pattern.

Porch Design – Simple and Tasteful

Tip: To create a beautiful front porch design, it should be done in the same style as the exterior of the main building.

In order to correctly fit the porch as harmoniously as possible into the overall picture, you need to follow some tricks:

• The easiest way is to paint the elements in the same color, or use the same geometric shapes when decorating. The photo clearly shows how these techniques work when finishing a plastered building and a painted porch;
• An equally effective method is to literally “dissolve” the details of the extension in the facade decoration elements. For example, gray concrete steps can almost merge with the plinth of the house, while the canopy repeats the beautiful brickwork, in which the layers protrude from the vertical plane. The general background of the bulky design is diluted with metal, with elegant lace, forged railings, which gives the structure originality and sophistication;
• You can decorate the entrance group and the windows of the building in the same style. The price of this method is quite high, but it is an effective method to break the geometry and space, which will change the appearance of the building beyond recognition.
• A beautiful finish of wooden columns with simple carved elements can radically change the look of a house. This will give the porch expressiveness and brightness.

Tiling stairs

Stairs are a very important part of the porch in your home. The best ideas are decorating it with natural stone, you can use special slabs for the porch, which can be granite, rubble stone, concrete. A popular way is to tile the stairs. The best option is to use clinker tiles.

Advantages:

• High wear and impact resistance;
• Long service life;
• Low moisture absorption;
• Frost resistance;
• Safety of use – the surface of the coating does not slip.
