If you have a house, chances are that you have a garden. Gardens can be a beautiful escape from the troubles and closed spaces of our homes and offices. You can relax, read, enjoy dinner or have intimate parties in the privacy of your garden. It is a place usually filled with plants, fresh air and open space. Of course, every garden requires a lot of work to be a beautiful dream escape.
Apart from designing your garden to your liking, a large part of the garden is the privacy it can provide. It is much easier to design your perfect garden when it is separated from the surrounding environment. This is done by fencing. Fencing is no longer restricted to wire fences and crude wood panels which are set just so you would know the limits of your property. Nowadays, fencing can be decorative, and made from various different materials which can be designed and picked so they perfectly complement or even enhance your garden space.
Materials and Design
There are so many designs and materials to choose from, that you can almost do anything that comes to mind. In many cases, there are so many options that people do not even imagine until they see them.
Most of the popular materials include wood, plastic, metal, brick and even less known materials such as bamboo, straw, etc. But when you choose the material, there are endless possibilities of how the final product will look. Combinations of different materials can also provide interesting solutions which can make your garden look even better.
Here are some examples:
- Two toned fencing, complemented by additional elements such as statues or vases
- Themed style fencing – make your fence in the style of medieval castle walls, or something else you find interesting
- Classic picket fence – classic look which can be modified for your garden purposes
- Bamboo fence – natural look for your tropical styled garden
- Brick wall – stylish brick wall, or a combination of brick and wood or bamboo can bring out the perfect look of your garden
- Waterfall wall – incorporate the fence in your garden and make it a part of it
- and many more…
Lighting
Fencing can, besides the material and design, be enhanced by lighting. Carefully planned and installed lights can enrich the ordinary looking fence and bring out points of interest as well as create an intimate atmosphere. There are many different types of garden lights which can be set up on, or near the fencing, which also come in various designs to suite your every mood.
So, stop thinking about fencing just as the means of garden limits and enhance your garden with the perfect fence which brings out the design you wanted and sends the garden visitors to a whole different place.
