You Can Add Privacy Using Plants or Trees.
Planting tall, leafy plants around your seating area can help define the space as well as offering the privacy you need.
If you plant the right types of shrubs or flowers you can also add a splash of welcome color to your design and, as a bonus, a wonderful scent when they are in bloom.
Add a Wall.
If you really need to block out something completely, our designer can include a wall or privacy fence in your design.
Even a simple two panel fence can cap off a backyard space and make it feel warmer and more inviting.
Add Overhead Cover.
We can discuss adding a pergola or other outdoor structure if you need to completely block the view from taller residences near you.
If you’re next-door neighbour can see your deck from their second-floor windows, we can help by installing a canopy, awning, or sun sail above your seating area.
Depending on the fabric you choose, you can control the color, and amount of light that gets through and the amount of privacy or shade you want. Talk with our designer to see whether a fabric awning or more permanent structure are best for your oasis.
Add a Trellis.
Even though a trellis won’t offer you complete privacy, it’s a great way to break up the view while also adding charm and coziness to your space.
Add some plants or climbing vines to increase the privacy factor and add even more rustic charm to your yard.
Hang Outdoor Curtains.
If we’re adding a custom outdoor structure to your yard, such as a pergola, gazebo, or pavilion, then you could also hang curtains or an awning from the structure to increase your privacy.
Imaging being able to draw those curtains closed and sit peacefully inside your space while blocking out the rest of the world.
Adding curtains can also add some colour to your design and immediately ups the coziness factor of your backyard retreat.
Outdoor fabric has come a long way over the past decade and will stand up well in different weather while blocking the sun and keeping you cool on the hottest days. When you need that breeze, you can just slide them open to let the air in and open-up the space for entertaining.
