Landscape is often asked to soften a boundary that nobody wants to discuss
Trees can filter views and create shade, but they grow slowly, change seasonally and require care.
Privacy should begin with plan, massing and opening placement, then deepen as planting matures
A perspective image cannot by itself prove screening, growth or long-term maintenance.
The design consequence is expressed through distance, shared and private routes, landscape filters, acoustic care and boundaries that can be crossed by choice.
Planting should enrich a clear boundary, not carry the entire burden of creating one.
