More and more, gardens are considered an extension of our homes. Whether it is a private garden or a park in a city, properly planning the individual parts of the final product is an absolute necessity. From the list of plants to the strategic importance of layout and other elements (including furniture, lighting, and accessories), creating an exciting and inspiring aesthetic requires good organization and preparation if one is to take full advantage of what the outdoors has to offer.

This book presents a selection of green spaces that surround us, beginning with our homes and extending to vegetated spaces that form part of our cities.
