Unique Fence and Gate with open Trellis 

10/11/09

This beautiful gate and fence is based on a diagonal trellis design. If privacy is not an issue, but separation of areas desired, then this is a good design idea. The beautiful wooden planters give the airy trellis gate and fence a sense of balance.

Have Do It Al, located in the United Kingdom build a unique fence for you.

Unique Fence with Backlighting 

22/10/09

Installed at the rear of the house, this unique fence with back lighting surrounds the patio area and creates separation between the patio and the garden shed for a clutter free area on the patio.

The fence is comprised of wood fence panels and white panel sheets. I am not sure of the material used for the white panel sheets, but I suspect it is a plastic material that allows the lights to radiate through during the night.

Two thumbs up for a very unique fence design.

Wildlife Pictorial Fence 

23/09/09


Depicting wildlife, flowers and white birch trees against a blue sky
and a three dimensional raccoon in a tree with a deer standing nearby,
this fence gets the whimsical award for unique fences by passersby.

The stones on the pictorial of the fence are echoed by actual stones in front of the fence, for more of a play on the 3-D elements.

This beautiful fence is made out of large ceramic panels and tiles.

It is located next to the Old Colorado City Library.

Beautiful and Unique Bamboo Fence 

21/09/09


If you live in the Tropics, or just want to pretend you live in the Tropics, then this beautiful, exotic and very unique bamboo fence will fit the bill nicely, and you can't get anymore private than with a bamboo fence. The tropical trees and ferns add that extra ambiance too.

This is Bambusero's Chaco fence that they built at the Auckland Flower Show 2008 winning the Gold award for feature garden.

Medieval Stone Gate Entrance and Fence 

10/09/09


This beautiful arched concrete arbor-like entrance could easily be constructed with a wrought iron gate. But since it's not a gate, I've included it in this lens as an interesting and unique fence made out of natural stones with an impressive, medieval stone gate entrance.

Equally elegant are the sculptural trees in large pots on either side of the entrance.

Bi-fold Metal Fence 

28/08/09

This unique fence has various sized holes drilled in it. What's unusual about it, is that it levers to either open or closed. See all 5 photos to fully appreciate the innovation.

There's a definite calm and peaceful contemporary Asian flare to this unique fence design.

Two thumbs up for beauty, innovation and inspiration!

Picket Fence 

09/08/09


This is a replica of a 1880 - 1900 picket fence that was redesigned and built in an historic district of Danville at the Sutherlin Mansion in Virginia. It has square pickets and posts.

For more information about the home and this unique fence visit the Danville Museum site.

Bamboo and Brick Fence 

24/07/09


Here we have a unique combination of a Bamboo and Brick Fence with two different outdoor flooring materials, which create a juxtaposition to the two different fence materials. Who said outdoor fences had to be boring?

Stained Glass Fence 

02/07/09


This beautiful fence with inset stained glass flowers would look beautiful in a contemporary, craftsman, or asian garden setting - as long as it's not country! I also like the deep warm redwood stain used on the fence.

Medieval Fence Design 

14/06/09

This unique fence has a medieval design, wine bottle glass inserts, and a gate that looks like a Tower.

Unique Fence with Square Openings 

25/05/09


This peak a boo fence provides plenty of privacy, but note the square openings where vines can intertwine. I also like the two tones of stain that have been applied to this unique fence.

Unique Fence called the Acrobat Fence 

The artist, John T. Unger, created this unique fence out of steel and red tiles (I'm assuming they are glass tiles), which depicts acrobats tumbling.

See John Unger in Garden Art Ideas.
