The balcony nobody uses
Who can see me, and what would stop them?
Privacy is a geometry problem with a view cost. The useful answer is the smallest thing that interrupts the specific line that bothers you.
The line
Every marked line into this seat is already interrupted. Privacy reads 5 out of 100 here, and nothing needs building.
| Who | Line | Distance | Above the seat | Bearing | Barrier halfway | Interrupted by |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The flat opposite | Blocked | 75.5 ft | -4° | 246° | 60.4 ft | Glass balustrade |
The smallest thing that closes it
Add 0.4 ft to glass balustrade
Glass balustrade already sits on this line at 63 feet. Taking it to 63 feet closes the sightline without introducing a new object into the garden.
Sized against every marked observer. Nobody of any weight is left with a view in.
Every position tested
Close to the seat means short and wide. Close to them means tall and narrow, and usually not your land.| What | Height | Width | Material | Privacy after | View kept | Still sees in | Whose land |
