Gardens in My Life Bewertungen

Gardens in My Life is a personal journey... Particularly vivid are the descriptions of Arabella's childhood holidays in Oliveto... This instilled in her a deep and lasting love of nature that has provided a rich seam of inspiration. This book is a compelling testament to that' * House & Garden *
It's a book that will no doubt adorn the coffee tables in the grand houses she was first inspired by when she arrived in London. And it's a testament to an extraordinarily creative and blooming life * Tatler *

This beautiful book, by one of the most accomplished garden designers of our time, looks back over Arabella's extraordinary career and the gardens that have had particular interest or meaning to her... Alongside breath-taking photography are Arabella's fascinating sketches and planting plans' * The Home Page *

[Lennox-Boyd is] an engaging, graceful writer with a straightforward, almost modest style -- Anne Swithinbank, World of Interiors
Wildly romantic, atmospheric and often festooned with roses, Arabella Lennox-Boyd designs are celebrated with gusto in this exploration of her work. From her own garden in Tuscany, to those in Britain and beyond, it's heady, aspirational stuff. Wonderful for luxuriating in on a wet winter afternoon, the mix of conversational anecdote and description of the thinking behind each garden makes for an enjoyable read. I particularly appreciated the 'masterplan' overhead drawings, which help the reader to orientate themselves within each garden -- Rachel de Thame, The Times
A nostalgic look back at her career and the private gardens that have had a particular interest or meaning to her * Landscape Magazine *
