Hardcover. 1st Edition. 1st edition, 1st printing ; 192 p. : col. ill. ; 29 cm.; ISBN: 0941711854; 9780941711852; LCCN: 2006-927987 ; OCLC: 82364748 ; LC: SB472.45; Dewey: 712 ; stiff boards with color photographic dustjacket ; "The most important ingredients of a powerful landscape are usually not plants, flowers, buildings, or trees. The key to success lies in the basic tools of visual art: the four art elements (line, color, form, and texture) and the broader principles of design such as proportion, scale, and focalization. All gardens that have stood the test of time convey the power these tools hold over the human imagination. Crafting a four-part master plan depends on their skillful application-a lifelong pursuit. The following is a small taste of what these tools are and how they work on the land." ; renowned landscape architects Hugh and Mary Palmer Dargan share the secret to creating an unforgettable landscape with the "Four-Part Master Plan" -- a unique method they've perfected over the past two-and-a-half decades of creating award-winning gardens and yards for clients. ; Illustrations of historic gardens from around the world that inspired to the authors are included as well as before and after examples of the authors' award-winning work. ; Hugh attended The University of Georgia and graduated in 1973. Mary Palmer, also trained as a landscape architect achieved Masters in the field from Louisiana State University (1981) and enjoyed a degree in Botany from The University of Tennessee (1976). She was Botanist and Education Director at Cheekwood, The Tennessee Fine Arts and Botanical Garden in the late seventies.. ; FINE/FINE.
