First of all … what is Style?

Style is created by a particular group of elements that harmonise with each other to produce a specific look.

In the context of gardens, style is all about the choices we make to create an environment.

Style my Garden is a book that helps explain and simplify garden style, and is presented in a way that enables you to not only find out what you personally like, but why you like it!

Let us think about roots for a moment...

Everything that we see around us has evolved from what has gone before. This is indeed true of the main garden styles we see today. Style My Garden identifies seven garden styles, four of which relate to global roots of garden style. These are romantic, classic, minimalist and natural.

Each of these has been born out of a range of influences, including culture, climate, history, skill, geography, philosophy and religious beliefs – a process that has taken thousands of years. These have also inspired the related styles of dramatic, chic and creative.
