About this title

Synopsis

A guide to designing landscape around the home features hundreds of practical ideas, hints from ten landscape architects, step-by-step directions for drawing plans, and time-, money-, and water-saving techniques.

Reviews

Outdoor Living Spaces presents case histories of ten gardens to demonstrate the process of landscape evaluation, design, planning, and implementation. The gardens range in size from a city courtyard to typical suburban lots and spacious rural properties. Each profile examines the initial problems and promise of the site, the owner's goals, the designer's strategy, installation, future plans, and key design concepts relevant to other sites. A concluding section details landscape evaluation and design process. An environmentally friendly ethic throughout the book stresses use of native species, water conservation, and limited use of chemicals. Buy this book if you need a practical guide to landscaping. For the real gardeners among your patrons, also buy Paterson's book. The director of the Royal Botanical Garden in Hamilton, Ontario, Paterson brings a plantsman's eye and experience to this guide to selecting and placing plants for greatest effect, delight, and coherence through the changing seasons. Chapters on the major groups of garden plants spotlight his personal favorites. Recommended for pleasure reading, even in libraries that do not share his Northern climate.
