Immerse yourself in the meaningful, enduring gardens designed by Campion Hruby Landscape Architects, and learn more about the thought and intention that goes into crafting these loved and cherished outdoor spaces. For Campion Hruby Landscape Architects, each garden is unique—a one-of-a-kind reflection of architecture and nature, imbued with the personality of those who inhabit it. Never static, ever-changing, these gardens are inspired by experience and imagination, and the fine balance of natural elements. When loved and cherished, gardens can flourish for generations as places for gathering, entertaining, contemplation, and refuge.

With stunning colour photography and intricately detailed sketches, Enduring Gardens: The Tame and the Wild immerses readers in the unique gardens designed by CHLA and invites them behind the scenes to learn more about CHLA's approach to landscape design. Exploring the individual components of an enduring garden through the creative eyes of CHLA, this monograph reveals the thought and intention that goes into crafting meaningful gardens, from exploring the sensory stimuli of nature to connecting with architecture and balancing the tame and the wild.

Essential inspiration for architects, landscape architects, and discerning, passionate gardeners, this captivating monograph shares what CHLA defines as the essential and intrinsic elements of a well-loved garden.

AUTHOR: Since its inception in 2010, Campion Hruby Landscape Architects and its creative team have designed hundreds of gardens across the United States' mid-Atlantic region and beyond. CHLA's gardens are inspired by experience and imagination, and they forge connections between people, architecture, and land. The firm exercises a modern aesthetic to create places of unique and simple beauty and works with sustainable methods to create landscapes that endure. Based in Annapolis, Maryland, CHLA's work has been widely published and honoured with awards from throughout the mid-Atlantic region. It has been recognised for gardens large and small, urban and rural, modern and traditional. While the team has evolved and grown, CHLA's goal has always been the same: to connect people with the land through a process of joy, humour, and creative collaboration.

SELLING POINTS:

  • This uniquely presented monograph is arranged by the six elements that CHLA employs in its design process, revealing what they value and how they think.
  • Chapters provide comprehensive insight into these six elements and showcase a broad range of CHLA projects across the mid-Atlantic.
  • Beautifully illustrated and written with stunning photography and detailed sketches.
  • Personal essays provide insight into the founders' inspiration and journey to become landscape architects.
  • Shares trade secrets of garden design and inspiring, unexpected plant combinations.
