The international garden festival of Chaumont-sur-Loire, set in the stunning Loire valley in France, has been a showcase for cutting-edge garden design since its inception in 1992. It has featured work by such prestigious names as Fernando Caruncho, Peter Latz, Adriaan Geuze, Michel Desvigne and Peter Walker, as well as rising new talent from around the world." "This selection of outstanding designs from the past ten years is grouped together in six themes that present the thought and inspiration behind the gardens, from creations that explore time and change to lighthearted, whimsical gardens. The concepts, techniques and materials of over thirty-six main examples are discussed and illustrated, along with details of many more. Practical, thought-provoking commentaries support this rich visual source, which also includes the designers' original plans and sketches. A comprehensive reference section with further details of gardens and designers completes the book.
