Garden Getaways: Havens at Home

Outdoor rooms have become more popular than ever, and these remarkable designs show how to turn any garden into a personal paradise.
Every one of these nature-filled spaces, created by major architect Michael Glassman, provides a haven for relaxation, an escape from the stress and strain of daily life. Just looking at the superb color photographs will give a gardener inspiration and spark the desire to redesign. On stunning display are candlelit backyards with comfortable furniture, terraces with a calming view, soothing water features and pools, walls that block out the world and ensure privacy, and flowers and shrubbery to delight the eye. Glassman explains in detail how he came to construct each one, carefully listing the problems he encountered along the way, from poor drainage to major erosion to direct sun, and how he solved them. A planting list accompanies each layout. Garden Getaways: Havens at Home
