New international trends in design for outdoor living terraces, patios, courtyards, rooftops and balconies.
Outdoor living is "in." More and more people see gardens, patios or balconies as attractive, additional living space. As a result, demand for high quality, attractive and functional outdoor design is on the rise. Appealing weatherproof garden furniture and decorative, functional accessories and materials are becoming increasingly popular.
The present book shows individually designed open spaces from all over the world—spaces whose use of plants, unusual seating arrangements, exotic materials and the play of light and shade turn living outdoors into an unforgettable experience.
