A custom steel fence separates the side yard from the greenbelt while keeping the backyard view open, striking the perfect balance between privacy and openness. We regraded the backyard to create a safe and inviting play area for the kids, addressing the family’s top priority of making the yard more functional. To add privacy without closing off the space, we planted vines near the deck that gently screen the area. This natural barrier complements the fence and creates a cozy outdoor spot the family can truly enjoy together.
