Add Privacy And Beauty To Your Modern Home With A Wood Fence

A wood fence used to be the only type of fence one could build for their home but now there are so many options and choices of materials that wood has become just one of the things you can opt for. Although it may be perceived as traditional or rustic, a wood fence can also look very modern. It all has to do with the design.

To make a fence look modern you have to think out of the box and to distance yourself from the usual designs that come to mind. For example, instead of placing the wood boards vertically try thinking horizontally. You can either create a very compact design for the fence or you can create chic patterns. If you prefer something more exotic, choose a wood that reflects that such as bamboo or some other type.

For a cohesive landscape, use the same type of wood for the deck as well

Combinations of materials can also be used. The concrete and wood combo is quite popular
