Guy Cooper and Gordon Taylor - celebrated garden designers - made their stylish outspoken mark in their first television series and accompanying book, exploring traditional, eccentric and contemporary gardens all over Britain. Now in their second series they dig deeper into the principles of garden design and look particularly at the elements which make a successful garden: water, form, sculpture, plants, time and materials.
They visit fifty prestigious gardens in Britain, both classic and modern, looking at the legacy of the early pioneers and championing the work of many inspiring contemporary designers. And they design a stunning city garden from scratch, blending in the six elements, to show how a contemporary garden can incorporate all that we have learnt from the past.
This handsome, fully illustrated book richly demonstrates the Curious Gardeners' original approach to working with a garden's natural beauty, heightened by the use of inspired design.
