Summary

This publication celebrates the skill, talent, and cooperation needed to create interior landscapes, a unique design discipline melding the exterior garden with the built architectural environment to bring the vitality and liveliness of nature inside the many diverse structures in which we live and work. The permanent display of living plants inside buildings meant for, but not limited to, human rather than horticultural use is a relatively recent phenomenon. Interior Landscapes will illustrate how sophisticated this discipline has become in a space of only thirty years.
