En savoir plus sur le livre
The strong horizontals of bamboo reflected in dark water, the rhythmic clap of the deer scarer, and the contemplative beauty of sand waves create a soothing blend of nature and art. Your vision of a Japanese garden can extend beyond Japan, and this comprehensive guide will help you capture its elusive spirit in your home or office, regardless of location. The author, a Japanese landscape architect with extensive experience designing gardens in the West, provides step-by-step instructions tailored to your unique environment using readily available materials. Since relocating to the UK in 1974, he has designed numerous Japanese gardens, from intimate private spaces to expansive public areas. Drawing from this experience, he offers practical guidance complemented by drawings and photographs for clarity. While many existing books on Japanese gardens focus on historical context or are translations from Japanese authors, they often lack practical advice for constructing your own garden. As interest in Japanese culture grows, so too does the desire for Japanese gardens. This guide aims to inspire and assist those captivated by the beauty of Japanese gardens, enabling you to create a space you can enjoy daily.
