July 31, 2012

App Makes It Simple to Design a Dream Outdoor Living Space and Share Ideas in a Mobile Format WINCHESTER, Va., July 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Trex Company, the world's largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking and railing, recently launched a Deck Color Visualizer exclusively for the iPad. Available for complimentary download from the Apple iTunes App Store, the tool assists homeowners in exploring deck color options and sharing their ideas with others. Featuring photo-realistic representations of three Trex outdoor living spaces, users may experiment virtually with the colors of various deck elements in order to design a completely customized outdoor oasis. Easy to Use The Trex Deck Color Visualizer was specifically developed to provide a user-friendly and simplified experience. Each pre-loaded photo features primary and accent decking boards and fascia – while two of the three photos also show Trex railing components, including top and bottom rails, balusters, posts, post caps and post skirts. With just a touch on the Color Visualizer toolbar, the user may view the available deck and railing components in a variety of colors – including the seven rich Trex Transcend® hues that feature subtle shading, natural variations and distinctive hardwood-like textures. These colors are Tree House (light brown), Vintage Lantern (deep-burnished bronze), Fire Pit (spicy red), Gravel Path (pristine grey), Spiced Rum (warm, earthy umber), Lava Rock (rich, reddish-black hardwood streaking) and Rope Swing (a light taupe). Additionally, the user may view the railing in Classic White and Black. Easy to Share Ideas Once the user has created an ideal color scheme, the finished photo may be saved to the iPad for future reference. It also may be emailed directly to friends, family or potential contractors for idea sharing and feedback. In addition, a menu bar at the top of the Visualizer screen includes links to the Trex website that will allow a user to easily find local Trex dealers and contractors.
