Gardens for the Future : Gestures Against the Wild

Résumé

Moving away from gardens that adhere to a strictly historical and traditional aesthetic, this gardening guide looks at gardens that dare to be different, and that have redifined the possibilities of both public and private garden space at the turn of the 20th century. The guide explores the developments in garden design, looking at new aesthetic principles and materials, as well as a the new functions and contexts for the garden.
