LIVE WELL IN YOUR GARDEN: Turn your backyard into a stylish, livable oasis with garden design and outdoor entertaining advice from a landscape designer to the stars.
This garden coffee table book showcases the very best of indoor/outdoor living through tours of 12 beautiful properties!
Pools made private by lush plantings, bedrooms open to the back yard, bar seating by the outdoor oven . . . California native and exterior architect Scott Shrader is known for creating covetable outdoor rooms for clients including Ellen DeGeneres and Patrick Dempsey. In this garden coffee table book, he shares the grounds of 12 beautiful properties for the first time—all designed to be lived in and enjoyed as extensions of the homes they surround.
Shrader shows us how to connect the landscape outside with interior décor, resulting in an exterior environment that flows naturally, stylishly, and serenely from this core. He also inspires us to think of the way these outdoor spaces will be used, and plan ahead for ways to keep our family and guests fed, warm, and entertained. Folded in between the featured gardens—which range in style from Hollywood Regency to Modern Moroccan—are meditative essays on Sustainability, Lifestyle, and Pathways, as Shrader reflects on how gardens change in small and big ways, transforming with the light, weather, cycle of seasons, and passage of years.
Perfect for anyone interested in interior and landscape design, The Art of Outdoor Living is an indispensable guide to creating chic gardens for entertaining, playing, and relaxing.
