About this title

Synopsis

Starting with the basic elements of the garden - floors, boundaries and dividers - there are suggestions for different laying patterns in natural stone and tiles, new ways with gates and trellis, and designs for avenues, arches and fruit tunnels. Major features are examined next, whether you yearn for a stream complete with waterfall and bridge, or are choosing a gazebo or a garden shed. The finishing touches of ornaments and furniture are not forgotten, from urns and obelisks to benches and hammocks, along with special effects such as using lighting, mosaic and trompe l'oeil. A section on restoration and maintenance completes the book.
Each entry contains a comprehensive description followed by a wide range of beautifully illustrated design ideas, many of which are accompanied by practical artworks. The crucial considerations of cost, durability and ease of use are also included, along with suggestions for combining different elements.
