Defining the Garden Room
Garden structures define outdoor spaces — they give a framework, backdrop, and most importantly enclosure. By providing organization in the garden, fences allows screening of unsightly areas and allow support for growing plants. Backdrop of a fence enhances the overall structure and form of shrubs and perennials.
Gates are the portal to garden spaces — they create a transition from one area of the garden to another. They increase the illusion of more space as well as lending a sense of mystery and mystique
