Sobre IBD

This antiquarian book contains a detailed guide to landscape design and architecture, being a statement of principles, with special reference to their contemporary use in America. This profusely-illustrated and timeless handbook is highly recommended for those with an interest in landscaping, and would make for a great addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: “Forman Design”, “The Rectangular Garden”, “The Domestic Formula”, “Radial Design”, “Spirit and Motive”, Treatment of the Land”, “Enclosure”, “Walks and Pavements”, “Shelter”, “Tables and Chairs”, “Plastic Figures”, “Water”, “Roses and Flowerbeds”, etcetera. Frank Albert Waugh (1869 - 1943), was an American landscape architect whose career focused upon recreational uses of national forests, the production of a highly natural style of landscape design, and the implementation of ecological principles. Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
