SYNOPSIS
Whether one
lives in the city, the suburbs, in the countryside, or near the water, the
presence of an outdoor space can provide an important connection between the
interior realm and the external context of a residence. Depending on the
location, an outdoor space can serve various important functions. They can
provide a refuge from commotion for urban residents, or a platform from
which to embrace the landscape for those living in more remote areas. This
book gathers a multitude of residential outdoor spaces in the form of
gardens, terraces, balconies and patios and offers an array of inspirational
ideas to those interested in designing their own outdoor space.
