are that proportionately little
was spent planning and “building” the unenclosed space—your ‘yard. People are beginning to “build” their yards as they “build” their home. » ” ” EXAMINE: THE WAY you
use your.-yard and plan it to
suit your individual habits and ~
needs. Space should be allotted for work, rest and recreation:
Laundry, garbage cans, car, deliveries, 6utdoor furniture and the children’s swings should be taken into consideration as well as your favorite flowers. The first step in building your “outdoor room” is to ‘lay floor.” You have a wide choice of * flooring materials: Dirt,
grass, concrete, asphalt, gravel,
brick, wood, water,
limestone,
the
cork, bark, flagstone, tile, to = “Good
name a few. Just Hw much of each you use and where you place them depends orf your tastes.
Certainly, the lanes of heavy’ traffic across your yard should
be hard surfaces. If-a path has been worn over the lawn, it is probably a natural traffic lane. It is better to hard surface it thah to attempt to replant it.
n » 5 GRASSES ARE much like carpets. They reduce the heat, noise, dust and glare in a yard. With the ‘“floor” of grass and paths in, you can turn your attention to the walls. You can
build them of tall shrubs, hedges, smaller trees, cactus, . vines on trellises, walls, banks, railings, fences. All create privacy.
fences make good neighbors” is an old New England saying. It iz especially true in. this day of picture win-~ dows and outdoor living. In general, .the smaller your lot
the more you will rely on fences and the less you can depend on shrubbery for privacy. . Properly placed. walls of
greenery will control your view .
from the inside and control your neighbors looking in from the outsjde. The right fence will keep the garbage cans from being part of the scenery from the. terrace.
Your yard will have a ‘‘roof.” » 5 ” TREES are plants which grow high enough for a per-
son to walk under. They're the roof of your outside room.
Trees provide us with shade,
wood. They filter the air, reduce the noise and in general, have a quieting effect on surround-* ings. . Of course, you can build roofs as well as grow them. “Roof” in your yard can mean an awning or an extension of the porch, a shelter or a latticed arbor. A regular garden um-
* brella or a new, square-woven,
wicker shade is another type of yard “roof.” With the room Societe - floors, walls and roof, the final step is to decorate and furnish it. Decoration can be flowers shrubs, herbs, sculpture and fountains. It is difficult to overstate the
. importance of flowers in provid-
ing color and fragrance for your yard. But, far too many
people start and’ end their garden. by planting a package of flower seeds, Like your house you can fur-
“nish your yard with built-in
furniture (benches, tables, burbecues, swings and sandboxes)
or mpvable pieces (garden chairs, lounges, hammocks, tables). » ” ” . AS IN ANY room, house-
keeping outdoors is. a. major
Gonsideration.. A good “outdoor®
room’ keeps this to a minimum. Your plan should be governed by how many hours a week you can honestly. spare for maintenance for cultivating flowers and upon your skill in that di-
rection. ,
