At Home in the Garden: Creating Stylish Outdoor Rooms

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Think how many hundreds of square feet you could add to your living space by creating true "garden rooms" outdoors! Start your dreaming with hundreds of vibrant color photo ideas for transforming your yard or landscape. Follow the practical checklists as you begin your master plan. It's not how much money you spend, but how much magic you choose to perform, that will increase the value and heighten your pleasure. Make your choices as you look over the many entryways, gates and fences, arbors and arches, espaliers, gazebos, moongates, pergolas, even a "haha" (low wall that enhances a view). See how to soften steep slopes and liven flat areas, as you enhance spaces for relaxing and eating with plantings for all seasons and soils, and special uses of water, light, and color. The final touch: play areas, for kids and for you. 10 X 10. 160 Color Pages
