Short description/annotation:
Modernist-style architecture remains one of the most popular in housing markets all across the US, and this volume explores the full range of what s actually possible when plants and hardscape are considered as critical elements of the indoor-outdoor lifestyle the movement promotes, with ample inspiration for homeowners and fans of midcentury-to-contemporary home design.
Description:
Indoor-outdoor living has become a valued component of many of today s homes, and a lot of design philosophy has emerged along with their development about how a landscape can enhance both the architecture and the quality of the inhabitants lives. Much of this is unknown to today s homeowners, however, and will be explored fully here as reinterpreted by today s leading garden designers. Plenty of gorgeous photos and in-depth plant information will give garden-enthusiast readers inspiration and the tools to re-create the planting schemes shown within. The 35 featured gardens are from across the US and created by today s leading landscape designers including Reed Hilderbrand, Mia Lehrer, Wagner Hodgson, Margaret McCurry, Marmol Radziner, Judy Kameon/Elysian Landscapes, Raymond Jungles, and Terremoto, with all contemporary photography by equally talented contemporary photographers. Several homes are owned by celebrities, including Mandy Moore, the founders of Vince clothing, and others.
