Product Description

Outside the Not So Big House extends the principles from The Not So Big House to offer a unified source of design advice about making the indoors and outdoors work together. Through the unique pairing of bestselling author and residential architect Sarah Susanka and landscape designer and award-winning writer Julie Moir Messervy, two highly qualified experts teach us how to think in a new way about designing our outdoor spaces - so they are in keeping with our interior ones. Outside the Not So Big House gives language to design concepts that unify home and landscape. Two major concepts - make building decisions in the context of the land and make landscape decisions that draw the inside toward the outside - inspire homeowners to attune their homes and property to fit the way we live today.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good gardening ideas book for both design professionals and ordinary gardeners, 8 Jan 2008

By	Gang Chen "LEEDSeries.com, Bestselling Author... (http://www.ArchiteG.com/) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Outside the Not So Big House: Creating the Landscape of Home (Hardcover)

A house and its garden are different parts of the same overall design. Bestselling author Sarah Susanka and acclaimed landscape designer and award-winning writer Julie Moir Messervy understand this concept. They describe it as "opening up the relationship of indoors and out" and demonstrate it with actual case studies in "Outside the Not So Big House: Creating the Landscape of Home."

"Outside the Not So Big House: Creating the Landscape of Home" covers the landscape of home, embracing the habit of home (playing up the corners, borrowing the landscape, the attraction of opposites, a stream of one's own, shelter and embrace), composing journeys (variations on a theme, Japanese journey, parallel paths, the territory of home, the world behind the walls), linking the inside with the out (living lightly on the land, easy living, a landscape of stone, good fences, rooms inside and out), and crafting the elements of nature (gardens of earthly delight, three cabins in a forest, at home on the range, terraces of grass, a cottage in the city). This book does show the influence of Julie Moir Messervy's training with the well-known Japanese garden master Kinsaku Nakane as a Henry Luce Scholar.

"Outside the Not So Big House: Creating the Landscape of Home" has 216 pages and many dazzling color interior photos and plans. It is a good gardening ideas book for both design professionals and ordinary gardeners.
