Fence IdeasWallpaper The English are famous for their love ofthis type of wall coverings and were even able to adapt it for the street. Of course, paper and even vinyl wallpaper will not last long in the open air, so designer Susan Bradley makes them from steel (matte, polished to a mirror shine or artificially aged), colored acrylic and wood. A pattern is cut out of these materials, and the fence itself serves as the background. Susan makes her Outdoor Wallpaper to order - the client chooses the size, material and can even suggest his own design. Climbing plants will be a good addition to outdoor wallpaper. Mirrors Their ability to reflect light, expand space and create various optical illusions will come in handy not only in the house, but also in the garden. Ordinary mirrors are not very suitable for the street - suddenly someone wants to play football on the site. It is better to take an unbreakable mirror sheet based on polystyrene or acrylic. The first one easily bends in all directions, so it is suitable not only for straight, but also for curved surfaces. The main disadvantage is that the mirror coating is applied to the outside, so it is easy to damage. Acrylic is not flexible, but its reflective surface is smoother and stronger (the coating is done using traditional technology). Both types of mirrors can be colored - this will help create additional special effects in the garden. A fence covered with ivy or wild grapes is a classic of landscape design. Paint This is the simplest, but no less effective way to enliven the fence. Keep in mind: a large surface painted in a bright color can become the dominant feature of the garden, so it should be chosen without fail. You can take a look at the website of American landscape designer Steve Martino - a big fan of colorful fences. Posters Why not decorate the walls of the garden with outdoor advertising, reproductions of favorite paintings or family photos? And if you lead a stormy social life, you can hang posters with announcements of upcoming parties on the fence. A paper poster will survive outdoors until the first morning dew, but this can be fixed. The image can be printed on waterproof material: banner fabric, foam board, plastic, self-adhesive acrylic film (In the house, special lamps are used to illuminate works of art, and in the garden, electric garlands will do the job perfectly (just make sure they are suitable for outdoor use). Plants A fence covered with ivy or wild grapes is a classic of landscape design. So why give it up?! Especially if the fence does not shine with unearthly beauty and needs camouflage. If there is a need to divide the garden into separate zones, use lattices and pergolas. www.gazony.com, www.komplektstroy.com.
