Steal The View: Stone Wall

Classic Landscape Design, below, focal point with backdrop.
What you don't know?
.
Bench, tiny flagstone terrace, pots are at the property line.
.
Behind the bench?  Trees & low stone wall are on the neighbor's property.
.
Landscape Design rule: steal the view.

Pic taken last week in a client's frontyard.  Love a win-win.  My client's garden looks larger and the neighbor's garden looks larger.  And, this new garden area has a 'presence' immediately.  So much of landscaping takes 'time' to develop a presence.
