Problem
A garden set right at the street lies too exposed and loses its privacy; a garden tucked entirely behind the house loses touch with the life happening in front.
Solution
Place the garden to the side of the house, half-hidden and half in view, so it stays sheltered and private while still remaining connected to the rest of the site's daily life.
