The contemporary garden
The Contemporary Garden presents 300 of the most remarkable gardens across more than forty countries, offering an extraordinary global survey of modern garden design and landscape architecture. Curated in collaboration with an international team of horticultural experts, this beautifully produced garden book features both iconic public spaces and hidden private gems. From the world-famous High Line in New York and Changi Airport Garden in Singapore to a poetic hillside retreat in Morocco by Umberto Pasti and Anna Wintour’s elegant garden in upstate New York by Miranda Brooks, the collection celebrates creativity and diversity in the art of gardening.
Each garden is showcased with a stunning large-format image and a thoughtful description, revealing the vision and craftsmanship behind these inspiring outdoor spaces. Readers will discover work by renowned garden designers and landscape architects such as Fiona Brockhoff, Dan Pearson, Sarah Price, and Bernard Trainor, alongside projects by emerging talents and passionate owner-makers redefining the relationship between people and nature.
Organized alphabetically by designer or studio, The Contemporary Garden explores an extraordinary range of garden styles: naturalistic, community, wild, urban, botanical, dry, topiary, minimalist, edible, and floral. Together they illustrate how modern garden design fosters deeper, more sustainable connections with the natural world.
Featuring visionary designers including Marian Boswell, Sam Cox, Erik Dhont, Isabel Duprat, Luciano Giubbilei, Piet Oudolf, Reed Hilderbrand, Amalia Robredo, and Tom Stuart-Smith, this book is both an inspirational resource and an authoritative reference.
Beautifully designed and lavishly illustrated, The Contemporary Garden is the ultimate coffee table book for garden lovers, professional designers, and anyone seeking creative inspiration in the evolving art of the contemporary garden.
