Size is no object if you want to create a highly attractive, modern family garden. This book shows how even at the smallest scale it is possible to design your own beautiful and stylish outdoor space where both adults and children can have fun. It features fourteen gardens that are all very different in style and location – from a roof terrace and minimalist space in the city to a wildlife garden in the country. Several pages are dedicated to each scheme demonstrating in full how it is possible to achieve ′the look′, ′the features′ and ′the planting′ of the illustrated garden. As well as stunning photography, the book includes specially drawn plans. It provides a plethora of ideas for those who might want to overhaul their whole garden or just rethink a small part of it.
∗ Brilliant, beautiful, contemporary design ideas
∗ Lots of information and ideas about the perfect plants for you
∗ Great suggestions for garden features and hands–on projects to do in the garden
All laid out in a lively format ­ fun and easy to read
