Front Garden Privacy 💭

[nelsonic]

At present the front garden feels very “exposed” and passers by often stare into the garden … it’s mostly curiosity, can’t really blame them, but it still makes me slightly uncomfortable especially when I’m playing with the kids …

@iteles what are your thoughts on installing a privacy fabric or plant effect (e.g: artificial grass) on the front gate so we don’t have to worry about random people staring into the garden? 💭

I'm personally not too fussed about it but I understand the concern.

The trick is finding something that would not look bad (the rest of the fencing still looks a bit like a construction site from the outside). I think artificial grass would look shoddy but we can always test for effect by holding up some we already have.

This is our front gate, it has to look ✨ amazing ✨ !

I think that the foliage we currently have on the small green fence that blocks access from the front garden to the steps would look good but:

• The back is horrible so we'd have to get extra to put on the back so that the experience from the front garden would be ✌️ zen ✌️
• The product is SUUUUUUUUPER expensive

We can do some research to see if we can find a comparable product for a more accessible price.
