Summary
IN TIMELESS LANDSCAPE DESIGN, RENOWNED LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS Hugh and Mary Palmer Dargan share the secret to creating an unforgettable landscape with the "Four-Part Master Plan"-a unique method they've perfected over the past 25 years of creating award-winning gardens and yards. The Dargans share a blend of design techniques and practical advice on how to achieve the sophisticated look of a professionally designed landscape on any size and type of property. Design treatments are beautifully illustrated with color photographs, landscape plans, and before and after examples of the authors' work.
Excerpts
When you approach your home after a trip out into the rest of the world, does the sight of your home invite youinto a sanctuary, a retreat, a refuge from the cares of the world? When you are inside your home and looking out, do you find something beautiful, amusing and /or intriguing? When you walk around your property, are the areas you go to easy to approach, attractive, useful? If you have to answer "no" to any of these questions, it is time to take another look at landscapes-timeless landscapes-and see how you can put the lessons learned through hundreds of years towork outside your own door in a landscape that pleases the eye, nourishes the soul and makes living easier.
