LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE / FAUNA & FLORA –
Patrick Blanc, botanist and artist, is world famous as the inventor of the vertical garden. This new, updated edition of his book The Vertical Garden includes his latest achievements and projects (including Australian examples) which are bolder than ever.
Nobody is more familiar with the secrets of the plants than Blanc; plants from all over the world, that live on almost nothing, in the most unlikely situations, carpeting the forest understory in the semi-darkness or clinging to rock faces.
From Paris to Australia to New York and Singapore, Blanc invites nature to flourish on the walls of museums, shopping malls, hotels, private homes and skyscrapers. His work has brought a breath of fresh air to urban environments, changing our view of the cityscape, orchestrating and bringing art into the heart of the city, transforming concrete walls into refuges for biodiversity.
pp. 208, 485 colour illustrations. Out of print. (Oversized heavy book.)
Hardcover in Dustjacket
