It was in this vast landscape that the design partnership of Miguel Urquijo and Renate Kastner faced the challenge of creating a stylish green-looking design for a private garden. “The client wanted grass, rather than gravel,” says Miguel,“but we were determined to reduce water use.” Miguel also felt an island of green grass would cut the house off from the surrounding countryside.

  • Chapter 6 Persian Gardens & Hispano
    (1627) CHAPTER 6 PERSIAN GARDENS & HISPANO – MUSLIM GARDENS As we said earlier, I do not agree with the division between between "major' and "minor" arts. I also believe that gardens are indeed an art form. Not much is available in English on Persian gardens, hence I believe it wise to include a brief chapter on Persian gardens and their relation to Hispano-Muslim gardens. Certainly gardens are not peculiar to Persia, but are well known in much of Europe. There is a journal called "The English Garden" and another called "Garden Design". Though obviously there are similarities, in fact the the typical Persian garden is in some ways quite distinct from any sort of typical European garden. The English word "paradise" come from the Old Persian and Avestan pairi daeza, (Modern Persian ferdous), meaning "a walled space, in this case a garden.(1) The above indicates the antiquity of the garden in Persia, and also hints at a basic difference in concept between Persian and European gardens. In general, European gardens are meant to be part of the landscape, of the woods and meadows. Indeed, there is a style of European garden called "informal", "natural" or "woodland" which stresses precisely the appearance of being a pert of the natural (1628) environment, blending into it. With the exception of the Caspian coast an a few other areas, Persia is mainly arid or semi-arid and barren. Ergo, in Persia the garden is meant to stand in stark contrast to the surrounding landscape, an oasis or island of verdure in a sea of aridity.

  • French & Italian Gardens
    Discover glorious spring peonies French & Italian Gardens PARC MONCEAu – PARIS A pyramid is one of the many architectural set pieces and fragments that lie strewn around the Parc Monceau in Paris. They were designed to bring together the landscape and transform it into an illusory landscape by designer Louis Carmontelle who was a dramatist, illustrator and garden designer. Tombs, broken columns, an obelisk, an antique colonnade and ancient arches were all erected in 1769 for Duc de’Orleans. PARC DE BAGAtelle – PARIS The Parc de Bagatelle is a full scale picturesque landscape complete with lakes, waterfalls, Palladian or Chinese bridges and countless follies. It’s one of Paris’ best loved parks, though it’s most famous for its rose garden, created in 1905 by JCN Forestier. The very first incarnation of Bagatelle in 1777 was the result of a famous bet between Marie-Antoinette and her brother-in-law, the comte d’Artois, whom she challenged to create a garden in just two months. The Count employed 900 workmen day and night to win the wager. The architect Francois-Joseph Belanger rose to the challenge, but once the bet was won, Thomas Blaikie, a young Scotsman, was brought on board to deliver a large English-style landscape. A very successful designer, Blaikie worked in France for most of his life and collaborated on large projects such as the Parc Monceau. JARDIN DU LUXEMBOURG – PARIS Please note this garden is not included in sightseeing but can be visited in free time. The garden was made for the Italian Queen Marie (de Medici), widow of Henry IV of France and regent for her son Louis XIII.

    Garden design - Wikipedia Page 1 of 10 Garden design From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Garden design is the art and process of designing and creating plans for layout and planting of gardens and landscapes. Garden design may be done by the garden owner themselves, or by professionals of varying levels of experience and expertise. Most professional garden designers have some training in horticulture and the principles of design, and some are also landscape architects, a more formal level of training that usually requires an advanced degree and often a state license. Amateur gardeners may also attain a high level of experience from extensive hours working in their own gardens, through casual study, serious study in Master Gardener Programs, or by joining gardening clubs.

    HISTORICAL CONTEXT Historical Context THE STORY OF THE ALCAZAR GARDENS C"ol G,een"ee 'The past is a foreign country; they spoke a different language there. " The Go-Between (A Cannes Festival award winning film) To trace the history of the Alcazar Gardens of Balboa Park, and to identify their significance as part of San Diego's regional herrtage, this chapter will explore their connections with the Moorish gardens of Spain. This chapter will also link the popular twentieth­ century appreciation of Moorish gardens to the emergence of the Spanish Revival style that became an architectural vernacular in those parts of America which have strong ties to Hispanic history. The importance of the Alcazar Gardens is cultural. in the broadest sense of the tenn. 1 To Americans, the culture represented by these gardens belongs to an unfamiliar time and place: Islamic Spain.2 Because the rich, complex history of Spain is not well understood by most English-speaking park visitors, and because the pattern and symbolism of Moorish gardens are not part of America's cultural literacy, non-Hispanic visitors often need extra help in interpreting the design metaphors of the Alcazar Gardens. 3 For Americans one key that can help unlock some of the seeming mystery of Moorish gardens is an understanding of the term alcazar. This word evolved from the Arab language, and means the (al) fortified palace (casr). In Andalusia this word is pronounced al-KAH-sar, with the accent on the second syllable.4 Each major city in Moorish Spain had its own fortified palace--a large walled compound that contained royal reception and dining AIc.Jzar Garden • Balboa Park San Diego • Califomia rooms, pleasure gardens, business offices, workers' quarters, orchards, food gardens, cisterns, workshops and farm animals.
