NEW UPDATED EDITION OF THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
This is a must-have sourcebook for anyone with a garden looking for design ideas. Over
800 colour illustrations by leading photographer Andrea Jones are cleverly arranged
to offer the reader thousands of possible design solutions. Gardens from all parts of
the world are included - America, France, Sweden, Germany, Holland, England - by
some of the very best garden designers. And alongside little-known examples of private
gardens are celebrated public spaces such as Parc André Citroën and Jardin Atlantique
as well as show gardens - Chelsea Flower Show, International Garden Festival,
Hampton Court, Chaumont.
The first part looks at garden details, listing design features that act either as
connecting or dividing elements. 'Connect' includes some of the more basic features,
such as lawns, decking and gravel gardens, before covering paths, steps, avenues, gates,
bridges and much more besides. 'Divide' then looks at elements that can be used
to create 'rooms' within gardens, such as hedges, walls, fences, screens, trees, and
different types of beds and borders. The third chapter looks at different types of Space -
urban and rural, large and small, high and low, while the final chapter covers every type
of possible garden style, including minimal, prairie, geometric, dry, landscaped, gravel,
water, exotic, contemporary, modern, minimal, oriental and night.
With a series of useful directories on designers, garden centres and public gardens,
The Garden Source
is THE book for modern garden design ideas.
