Description: Gardens filled with magic and hidden rooms--intimate retreats ì surrounded by curtains of foliage, bounded by archways, and ì offering summerhouses and gazebos as refuge. Open these pages to ì enter such wondrous spaces, revealed through outstanding color ì photographs, as well as by a lyrical text. These gardens have ì exhilarating arcaded paths, fountains, and grottos; ì light-filtering trees brushing up against dramatic stone ì entranceways; and doors tucked right inside hedges. Of course, ì every enchanted image will inspire you to create your own Eden, ì and embedded in the poetry is practical advice on the many design ì possibilities--romantic arbors and bowers, urban courtyards and ì rooftops, wild and woodland gardens, dens and treehouses--plus ì information on plants and furnishings.

Five case studies of real private paradises bring together ì plans and specially photographed sequences that permit you to ì penetrate their innermost mysteries.
