Small Garden Style: A Design Guide for Outdoor Rooms and Containers

I've always admired houses with beautiful and interesting gardens, but lacked the confidence and vision to plan my own. After reading this book I have a million ides and can't wait for warm weather to plan my own gardens. This is a great idea book with a beautiful and fascinating layout. Really glad I bought it. It's the kind of how-to book I haven't been able to find until now.

Small Garden Style is impeccably written and beautifully photographed. The book is packed with simple and easy to implement ideas for turning the backyard into an oasis for enjoying outdoor time with friends and family. The Californian authors have got me dreaming of the spring thaw here in Minneapolis, as midwesterners are especially motivated to plan our gardens with an eye on making the most of our fair weather months. I so enjoy this book that I am gifting it to several friends as inspiration for the spring and summer, and as an abundant dose of green and liveliness while our gardens are covered in snow.

Love this book! I am starting a landscape project and was looking for a book to help me understand where to start and what to do, and this fabulous book appeared in my feed. It arrived and I could not put it down! Read it cover to cover and keep going back to post it photos and ideas. It starts with a design quiz and then moves step by step through all the pieces of the project highlighting various styles. The pictures are stunning and super inspiring! The whole feel of the book is accessible and friendly - it is EXACTLY what I need as I start my project.

All future hostess gifts sorted! This book is it. The photos are light, bright, and a feast for the eyes. The garden tips and techniques are accessible and offer major bang for the buck. I love the eco-friendly vibe, and focus on less stuff - more living. Garden Style quickly replaced the pretty cookbook I display (and never use) in my kitchen and a second copy lives on my coffee table. I feel more connected to nature while cooking and lounging (inside) – plus this book I'll actually use!

This book is well written and highlights some beautiful spaces
