Summary

Modernist-style architecture remains one of the most popular in housing markets all across the US, and this volume explores the full range of what’s actually possible when plants and hardscape are considered as critical elements of the indoor-outdoor lifestyle the movement promotes, with ample inspiration for homeowners and fans of midcentury-to-contemporary home design.

A distinct garden design philosophy emerged along with modern architecture, intended to complement it in specific ways. Much of this is unknown to today’s homeowners, however, and is explored fully here as interpreted by today’s leading garden designers. Hundreds of gorgeous contemporary photos and in-depth plant information will give garden-enthusiast readers inspiration and the tools to re-create the planting schemes shown within, bringing high design home in accessible and practical ways and truly showing how a landscape can enhance both a house’s architecture and the quality of its inhabitants’ lives.

The thirty-five featured gardens are from across the US and created by today’s leading landscape designers including Reed Hilderbrand, Mia Lehrer, Wagner Hodgson, Marmol Radziner, Judy Kameon/Elysian Landscapes, Raymond Jungles, and Terremoto. Several homes are owned by celebrities, including Mandy Moore, the founders of Vince clothing, and others.
