Screening: Functional and aesthetic factor of modern garden design
While a garden used to be a representative figurehead for fence neighbors and neighbors, the green oasis of relaxation right next to one's own home today is primarily intended to offer recreational opportunities and a natural environment with a certain degree of privacy. With a specifically selected privacy screen, you can not only protect your garden from prying eyes, but also make the existing space attractive in the desired style.
Spatial subdivision and line of sight in the garden
Protective stone walls, hedgerows and trellis planted with climbing plants are not only suitable for optically separating a garden from neighboring properties and streets. Of course, the chosen variants, with their color, surface structure, height and material composition, also have an inward effect on the atmosphere perceived in the garden. In addition, design elements with visual protection character can also be used within the garden area in order to separate garden areas of different characteristics (for example, Bauerngarten vs. Asia-Garten) from each other and to consciously set certain visual lines and design axes.

Most flowering shrubs lose their leaves already in the fall and are therefore no guarantee for a visual demarcation in winter. This is ensured by hedges of flowering shrubs but with their colorful abundance of flowers for enthusiasm. In addition, the composition can be designed in a flowering look protection of this kind so that from late winter to fall always another species of flowers in the row blooms and provides lovely fragrance in the garden.

The right trees for privacy from above
If directly next to your garden or recreational property rise multi-storey residential buildings or you want to make a garden on a hillside, then the topic "privacy against insights from above" can be striking. A ball-trumpet tree or a ball-maple provides a certain shield against insights from above, without blocking out too much sunlight like trees with an expansively broad crown.
