Download or read book Elements of Garden Design written by Joe Eck and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2005-02 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elements of Garden Design does what few gardening books do--it addresses the process of conceiving a whole garden, as opposed to a single element like color or a particular class of plant. Joe Eck explores the idea of a garden, and offers a practical approach to translating concepts such as "intention" and "harmony" into the solid forms of hedges and terraces, paths and rooms. Novice and experienced professional alike will find both food for thought and down-on-the-ground advice on such matters as creating child- and pet-friendly designs.
