"This sunken woodland patio provides a beautiful, private place to sit along the property line. The fence undulates with the topography, and its construction provides a pleasing texture that alludes to the siding on the existing house. It allows some micro-glimpses through, giving it a lighter feeling and overall interest." Yet another design by Brian Higley. Thanks, Brian, for inspiring us all week!
