Item Description
With text and photography by Rick Darke, this stunning new full-color book highlights magnificently preserved or restored Arts and Crafts gardens in both England and North America, discussing the philosophy that informed their design and the place they hold within the movement.
The Arts and Crafts landscape aesthetic is interpreted for today's gardeners, allowing them to incorporate the simplicity and harmony that distinguishes the style into their own outdoor spaces. The book details specific ways readers can bring Arts and Crafts elements to their homes and gardens, such as including pergolas that effectively link house and garden or by planting native species that add a compelling sense of place.
“Quoting seminal figures....Darke reexamines the pertinence of arts and crafts ideals for our own gardens...[and] sidebar boxes...suggest[ing] specific plants and planting methods, and types of materials and decorative embellishments. A bevy of beautiful photographs illustrates Darke’s thoughtful and inspiring ruminations.”—Booklist.
