Publisher's Synopsis
Lively and ephemeral works of art, gardens are pleasant peaceful retreat from the bustling world that surrounds us. From the highly-structured gardens of France to the wild and rambling parks of England, to the winding Italian mazes, we have always treasured these pastoral spaces.
Nowadays, landscape architects use gardens to embellish our cities. Spaces freed from concrete architecture, gardens bring us the quietness we sometimes miss in a world that keeps on moving. Throughout its pages, this book is an invitation to revitalise yourself in the heart of nature and to breathe some fresh air in the most beautiful gardens around the world.
