About this title
Ordinary landscape design has lost its dimension of magic, and its true connection to the natural world. Based on over 30 years of garden-building experience and decades of spiritual practice, the authors suggest an alternative basis for design. Their paradigm is the mandala, an imagined reality and physical shape that appears in the art and myth of many of the world's cultures
Drawing on both Oriental and western philosophies, the book describes an entirely new way to think about garden design. It leads us into the landscapes designed by Martin Mosko, a Zen priest and landscape architect, worlds of sensual delight that are complete in themselves. Each is filled with the peace and harmony that reflects their integration of the materials used with an exceptional plan.
Whether you have a small urban courtyard or a large yard, the ideas presented here will inspire your heart and imagination. Those who want to take their design talents further will also find a novel way of thinking about space, energy, and the elements.
