A recent client chose to include a horizontal fence design as a complement to their Woodinville whole house remodel and addition. Their home was relatively private so having a horizontal fence for them was less about privacy and more about safety for their kids and animals while also complementing their modern aesthetic. Here are a few photos of their fence while it was in process.
