Modern Tropical Garden Design

Made Wijaya, world-famous for his inspirational garden designs, and knowledge of the architecture and culture of Bali, has documented for this book the best modern tropical gardens to be found anywhere. He describes the work and design philosophies of the best tropical landscape designers of recent decades, such as Roberto Burle Marx, Raymond Jungles, Ng Sek San and Bill Bensley. The book shows how a new wave has gripped the world of garden design in recent years, and of its historical antecedents from many continents. It dissects the various styles — from Brazilian modern, through Hawaiian to New Asian — that have influenced garden design in tropical Australia, Brazil, Mexico, Florida, Hawaii, India, Mauritius and Southeast Asia. It is a work of both inspirational and reference value. Infused with Made Wijaya’s personal style, this book aims to prove his contention that 'modern tropical gardens don’t need to be stiff and unfriendly”.
