Patio Privacy Ideas

Provide Privacy with a Fence

A privacy fence is the easiest way to ensure seclusion for a patio. When the fence reflects the architecture of the house, the outdoor space becomes a literal extension of the indoors. This Craftsman-style fence screens a small backyard patio from its neighbors and creates a warm backdrop for outdoor living. A shallow post-and-beam pergola raised on massive river-rock bases defines the outdoor living room, while the dining area occupies the area to the left. Large olive jars also help divide this patio into separate zones.
