The Perfect Landscape Addition – A Screen

Adding a landscape screen to your yard can provide both function and design. Give your home an exciting look with different styles and placement without needing to do other more costly additions. There are a variety of kinds of landscape screens that range from being practical to decorative or a combination of the two. Here is a closer look at more details and benefits of landscape screens. 

Privacy

One of the most popular reasons to add a landscape screen is to provide privacy to your yard. For anyone whose home is either on a busier street or closer to neighbors a screen can work wonders. Perhaps you have a pool or hot tub where you wish to make it less visible by passersby.

Change a view

This is similar to privacy only the other way around. For those who may have a less than desirable view from their yard a landscape screen can be the perfect solution. Once you select a nice design and install your screen, make it come to life by adding some greenery. You can line the screen with some containers with plants that will grow up in front of it with your screen as the perfect backdrop for a winning combo. 

Shield from the elements

It is not always a person you may want to shield yourself from, it may be Mother Nature sometimes. Especially here in Fort Lauderdale you may want to create your outdoor oasis but with a location that offers reprieve from the sun. The right landscape screen can help mitigate the hot beaming sun with just enough shade to make the perfect outdoor atmosphere.

Define a space

Finally, it may not be privacy or blocking the elements that you may need. It could be that you wish to section off areas of your yard as you create more definition of stations. You may find that you want to section off your outdoor kitchen from your pool area and a landscape screen can help you do just that. Think of the design less like a fence and more like an outdoor wall. Now let your design and creative mind go wild!
