They may delineate boundaries, like a walkway and planter area.

Screens might be used for protection from the elements. Perforated screens can block direct sunlight while allowing airflow. And can also be used to scatter and help absorb sounds.

There's the aesthetic appeal as well. Not-so-plain screens can be visually pleasant to look at.

Tahoe's crews were tasked with building these architectural screens in Carson City.

Though the design seems simple, the screens are made with both metal posts and planed redwood rails. The rail dimensions alternate, are painted black, and inset horizontally into the posts.

These not-so-plain screens separate the AC units from the walkway and help diffuse the sound when the units are running.Not So Plain
