A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

My new favourite read ... a beautiful and absorbing read. --Liz Earle, The Weekend Edition

Generously proportioned, weighty and amply furnished with fine photographs. --The Garden

I've been spending days with this book, and would recommend it to anyone practicing, studying, or interested in contemporary garden design. --Let's Talk

Jaw-dropping photographs and truly helpful practical advice aren't common gardening book bedfellows ... This book has both ... Reading this book feels like watching a magician performing a succession of seemingly impossible illusions, before beckoning you closer to reveal the secrets behind each trick - dazzling you to the point when you dare to dream that you too could pull off such magic ... Aspirational inspiration. --English Garden

Garden designers in search of fresh inspiration will appreciate the treasure-trove quality of the image-driven Garden Design Close-Up. --The Irish Times

A beautiful, engaging book ... there is an intimacy about the write-up for each garden that is incredibly appealing ... very succinct, interesting and knowledge ... In the modern age where we want instant facts and gratification, this book is perfect. I have travelled the world, learned a lot and it has been totally engaging from start to finish. Honestly, I can't see a reason not to buy this book. --Gardens Illustrated

Présentation de l'éditeur :
