Description
The Arts and Crafts Garden by Sarah Rutherford is an in-depth exploration of this influential design movement. Emerging in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it sought to revive simplicity, craftsmanship, and beauty amidst the industrialisation of Victorian times. The garden was a key aspect of the Arts and Crafts Movement, with notable figures such as Gertrude Jekyll and Edwin Lutyens contributing to its development. This beautifully illustrated book delves into the principles behind the Arts and Crafts Garden, examining the inspiration drawn from Stuart gardens, cottage gardens, and wild gardens. It showcases the carefully designed and often formal elements of these gardens, including topiary, gazebos, gateways, sundials, ponds, and billowing border plantings. With an extensive list of examples in the UK, this book provides a comprehensive look at the Arts and Crafts Garden style. By exploring the history and design principles behind this iconic garden movement, The Arts and Crafts Garden offers a unique insight into the world of gardening and garden design.
