Sinossi

Designing real gardens on slopes for real people forms the central core
of this book. It demonstrates that making plans for gardens on slopes of
all types really works. Not only that, they are a necessary part of the
process of turning challenging sites into attractive gardens. This is a
really useful book that shows how good design helps to avoid costly
common mistakes. It is a simple and informative guide detailing from
survey to construction and planting. Not many gardens are completely
flat. Just one step in a garden makes a big difference, adding more
interest to the site. But slopes do present more of a challenge when
designing gardens and definitely add to the expense of a building
project. A select portfolio of beautifully designed gardens shows
projects from start to finish. These are not simply attractive garden
plans - they actually work! Not only does this book inspire, it will
show how to master hilly sites. There are currently no books that deal
specifically with this common problem: in fact, in many books, designing
gardens on slopes is barely mentioned. Students of garden design,
qualified garden and landscape designers, landscape builders and
architects, and owners of sloping gardens will therefore find this book
particularly useful.
