Full Description


By presenting examples of innovative designs from both private and communal inner-city gardens all over the world, this book invites urban gardeners everywhere to create an inspiring outdoor haven no matter how limited available space may be. As well as showcasing design ideas for varied styles of peaceful and refreshing inner-city gardens, Stephen Anderton offers practical advice on the basic design elements necessary to create any urban sanctuary, including a consideration of soil, light, space, scale, and water, together with plant use and appearance. Examples provided include low maintenance minimalist gardens, family-friendly havens, gardens with soothing water features, roof terraces and balcony retreats, indoor-outdoor rooms, and natural style gardens. Designs and practical tips are given to create each of these different garden styles.
