The Garage
2. Free-standing walls. Staggered Cor-Ten steel and wood panels create a feeling of privacy in this Seattle front yard without completely closing the garden off from the street. Play with the heights of free-standing walls — notice how the ones here are sized to block a parked car from view — to adjust to the specifics of your site and what you’d like to screen.

4. Pleached trees. For this hedges-on-stilts look, train young trees with pliable branches into nearly planar screens by bending and interweaving their branches. In this London backyard, pleached Carpinus trees kept to about 10 feet tall screen adjacent homes but take advantage of attractive views of neighboring tree canopies.
