Create Usable Outdoor Space With Concrete Retaining Walls
Creating an outdoor space can be a challenge if your front yard is on the street level. Installing concrete retaining walls mitigate the difference. They also give a smooth contemporary look that looks great with colorful plants and provide privacy. See an example in this video by LandscapingNetwork.com:
Privacy is enhanced with tall plants in this landscape design. The main plants used were phormium, which grow tall and dense but give a loose instead of a hedgy feeling, and lower succulents for color and texture. A blue acacia tree will become the focal point of this outdoor space.
