Spanning from the Washington, DC, Metro Area to the Eastern Shore
of the Chesapeake Bay, this fascinating tour of 15 gardens by
well-known designers illuminates the sophisticated yet inviting
landscape style of the Capital region. Hidden from the public, they
are tucked into tiny urban backyards, set into suburban enclaves,
or preside over open views: A waterfront garden of natives that
draws local wildlife; a refined townhouse terrace with crisp
paving; a sprawling property with plants massed to create
year-round colour and sculptural effect. In addition to a plan and
plant list, each project includes a description of the owners'
goals and the principles behind the design. Every garden responds
to the demands of the site, climate, and clients' needs. Together
they share the light-handed information about design and ecological
intelligence that modern gardeners will appreciate.
Writing is never easy, but this book can make it easier. With
attentiveness and experience, Claudia Kousoulas gives readers
applied writing, editing, and production approaches that provide a
clear path to completing a document and tools that ensure it is
engaging and professional. The book follows a project's path from
initial assignment and conception, through sorting out what's
significant, shaping it into a message, and guiding readers to an
action. It addresses the different types of documents planners have
to create, the different media they use, and the different
audiences they address. Its strategies will help writers start a
project and see it through to a clear and coherent piece of work
that serves its purpose. This book will help planners meet the
challenges of creating work that is accurate, creative, and useful.
Students will find it helpful in providing professional standards
and quick reference information, and professionals will carry it
through their careers as a reference, and as a way to establish
workplace standards and improve their own work.
