Publisher's Synopsis
The name and reputation of Luciano Giubbilei have been growing steadily since first publication of this book in 2010. His list of American clients rises year on year and we are bringing this title back into print in May to coincide with a major speaking tour in the US and abroad.
Luciano has been creating serenely beautiful gardens in locations on three continents since 1997. He is best known for the understated elegance of his designs, paying careful attention to the composition of space and constantly evolving his approach both in response to his clients and as his ideas develop.
This book examines 12 significant gardens from Luciano's portfolio, and fully documents each project, from the preparation of mood boards to final planting and finishing. The book includes sections on site development, nursery production and the sourcing of plants, and the artists and craftsmen with whom Luciano works, detailing his working methods and sources of inspiration. Featuring planting plans, documentary images and photographs from award-winning gardens photographer Steven Wooster, the book paints a detailed portrait of this acclaimed garden designer.
