Shows how gardeners, designers, and other individuals use indoor and outdoor spaces, plants, furnishings, art, and accessories to express garden style year-round in any region.
First book to distinctly identify and define garden style as more than a trend—rather a design approach with staying power.
Builds on gardening as the country’s number one pastime and, now, as a leading design inspiration.
Five before-and-after makeover projects inspire readers into action.
Helps readers create garden rooms in every room of the house and bring the outside inside year-round.
Four sections: "Creating Fresh-Air Spaces" (decorating porches, patios, decks, potting sheds, and outdoor rooms), "Bringing the Outdoors In" (decorating every room in the house, even foyers, powder rooms, and nurseries), "Living the Garden Life" (profiles of garden style from Connecticut to California in urban, suburban, and rural settings), and "Sources and Inspirations" (top resources in every region for decorative furnishings, accessories, and plants).
Special attention to porches, patios, and decks.
Ideas range from clever and casual to elegantly formal.
A list of 300 national resources helps readers easily find products across the country.
Shows the array of furnishings, plants, and accessories from home and garden centers and catalogs.

Review:
Garden Style is a rich book of ideas for those who have sun porches, glassed-in plant rooms, areas in the home that seem to be neither outside nor inside but somewhere in between. There's advice on how to accent plant life with bright patterned rugs, glass topped tables, or wicker chairs. Also included are ideas for kitchens and living rooms "inspired" by garden style: a few gaffes here, including curtain rods made from twigs, which look, well, weird. Much more successful are pages devoted to a "miniature conservatory," like the terrariums kids buy in kits, but these are built carefully and delicately--an ecosystem small enough to fit on a kitchen shelf. For those whose potting sheds have become dark caverns full of lost tools, there's a section devoted to this often neglected but highly important room, one that, if bright and well-organized, can inspire even the most weary gardener: all the tools lined up, all the seeds and bulbs labeled and in order, full of promise. For the city dweller there's advice on roof gardens designed around the skyline, and these have a wonderful feeling of oasis and secrecy. --Emily White
