Outdoor Side Yard Raised Planters Vertical Fences, Walls Design Photos and Ideas

Architects Mathilde Nicoulaud and Olivier Lekien recreated a 1930 compact house in Montreuil, France, on the outskirts of Paris as their ideal family home.
A sunny, California aesthetic shines brightly in the outdoor patio.
A courtyard creates visual separation between the main house and the addition.
These sliding doors lead to the kitchen and a sitting room.
The penthouse has two adjoining, south-facing terraces.
According to the architects, "the spatial arrangement of the ‘pocket’ courtyards is also driven by environmental concerns: the building is teased apart to maximize winter solar penetration and to capture prevailing cooling breezes."
Scott has incorporated a bespoke timber and steel staircase next to the terrace to create a sunny core.
