Living in Sydney’s bustling suburbs often means dealing with overlooking neighbours and limited private outdoor space. At Stand Out Home Improvements, we’ve been helping homeowners across Camden, Campbelltown, and the broader Macarthur region transform their backyards into private outdoor sanctuaries for over 20 years. Here’s our expert guide to creating the perfect private retreat using pergolas and privacy screens.
Combining Pergolas and Privacy Screens for Maximum Effect
The key to creating a truly private outdoor space lies in thoughtful design that combines both vertical and overhead coverage. Our Colorbond pergolas and awnings can be perfectly paired with custom-made privacy screens to create a secluded outdoor room that feels like an extension of your home.
Strategic Screen Placement
When designing your outdoor privacy solution, consider these key factors:
- Identifying overlooking angles from neighbouring properties
- Maintaining natural light and airflow
- Creating zones for different activities
- Working with the unique layout of your property
