Synopsis

Ten Landscapes: Michael Balston presents the work of one of the premier garden and landscape designers in the UK and worldwide. Based in London, his most recent achievement was a gold medal honor at the prestigious Chelsea Garden Show in 1999 for the Daily Telegraph Reflective Garden. Balston, unlike many European landscape professionals, is deemed radical in his design directions with an architectural rationale crucial to concept of modern garden design. He easily combines a modern aesthetic with old world tradition, formal structure with chaos, and juxtaposes structure and color to promote good gardening that breaks the traditional rules.
