Japanese Landscape Design

The book is devoted to contemporary Japanese landscape design. The beauty of the Japanese garden lies in its combination of natural and artificial beauty. It represents the unique aesthetic taste of the Japanese people, mainly because of the distinct seasons of the insular country. Under the influence of religion, culture, history and customs, Japanese landscapes feature delicacy in design and elaboration in materials. This book consists of three chapters, Japanese gardens, public landscapes and interior landscapes, including the outstanding works of Japanese landscape designers, and giving full expression to the essence of Japanese landscape.
