Think Big in Your Small Backyard Space

Not every backyard is created equally. Depending on where your home resides, your backyard could be a little tough to get creative with.

Some of us live in row houses, townhouses, or even on a slope but, that doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice design, decor, or the use of our backyard space.

Thanks to our friends at Sun Set, we can show you how to Think Big in Your Small Backyard Space.

1. Implement low maintenance plants such as autumn moor grass, Mexican weeping bamboo, and yucca to soften an angular design.

2. Use Shade Sails overhead to cut back on the harsh sun drenched areas.

3. Turn your paved side yard into a Japanese garden by removing the concrete.

4. Replace your gloomy back entrance with broad stairs and small shrubs to create a more welcoming feel.

Tame a slope by creating an inviting deck space.

Extend a back living room or bedroom area by adding a deck with a surrounding garden.
