Description
Gardens Are for People, Third Edition With a New Preface is a seminal work on residential garden design that has shaped the profession and inspired generations of gardeners. Written by Thomas Church, with contributions from Grace Hall and Michael Laurie, this third edition features a new preface and a selected bibliography of writings by and about Church. The book presents Church's design philosophy and practical advice, illustrated with site plans and photographs of over 2,000 gardens he designed during his career. A pioneer in modern California garden design, Church's approach emphasizes the logical extension of the house into the garden, reflecting the personality and needs of the homeowner. This edition offers a unique perspective on garden design, one that is deeply rooted in the climatic, landscape, and lifestyle characteristics of the West Coast. With its focus on practicality and pragmatism, Gardens Are for People remains an essential resource for designers, students, and enthusiasts alike.
