Privacy Structures
Privacy structures are a must have if your home has a fairly larger backyard than a comparatively smaller lawn. Not only are privacy structures practical but they are an outdoor investment to create a fantastic sitting area. With fairy lights or lanterns strung across the 6×6 post and a canopy over the top can create the coziest spot in your home to curl up with a book on a summer evening!
Living Walls
Living walls can best be created by using cedar planks and using them like bamboos to either build a fence or use as a shade that’ll maintain the rawness of the great outdoors and keep your backyard looking natural.
Privacy Screens
Privacy screens are ideal for backyard decks and definitely gives the seclusion you need from the neighbors. By creating a horizontal or woven pattern while crafting your privacy screen will aesthetically add to the lounge feel of your outdoor space.
Plants
Plants will low-key tackle your privacy issues while adding more greenery oriented visual appeal to your backyard space. The ideal way to achieve this tactic would be by planting tall grass in raised planters that’ll not only serve for privacy but will also keep the cool summer air breezing its way in and out while creating a wilderness-like vibe!
