Showcases the work of one Californian designer. Very high end, beautiful gardens. The book is quite a large format, beautifully produced and would make a nice gift for someone who likes Californian / Mediterranean gardens, ie, a hot and dry climate. Very stylish designs by a master in his field.

Really, this book is a bible. From start to finish, every single image is fabulous. I could not stop looking. Decided on like 3 projects. hugely inspirational. Honest, approachable, lush, real gardens where plants are centre stage with layers and layers of meaning and texture unfolding as you proceed. Nothing short of flawless, spiritual.Will gift this book to several great friends.
