In response to the growing demand for landscape architecture books, comes this practical guide featuring 1000 ideas by 100 specialized designers and architects. One thousand landscape architects offer their expertise on various facets of landscape architecture, not limited to just an extensive knowledge of the botanical aspects - choosing plants, trees, and shrubs that best thrive in a specific region - but also the designs of patios, fences, rock beds, paths, stone work, gazebos, pergolas, pool decks, and water features (fountains, waterfalls, pools, spas, and ponds with fish). This book offers real professional knowledge to those who are not necessarily born with green fingers but show an interest in landscape with design, advice, and do-it-your- self landscape recommendations, all richly illustrated. The options are infinite with such a wide variety of floral examples and technical advice.
