Midcentury modern design is as popular as ever, leading many of the hottest national real estate and home decór trends. One of the key features of a midcentury home is a cohesive connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. Because of this, the garden plays an important role. Midcentury Modern Garden Style, by Beth Dunlop—the editor in chief of Modern Magazine, celebrates the important role the landscape plays in this iconic style and helps homeowners create gardens that perfectly match their modern home. Dunlop explores the contribution of important practitioners, such as Garrett Eckbo, Lawrence Halprin, and Thomas Church, by pairing classic examples of their work with contemporary examples that have similar features. Readers will find a wealth of inspiring ideas for achieving the iconic look, and a resource section details where to buy the best plants, hardscape, and furniture. Midcentury Modern Garden Style is a rich, photo-driven guide and a must-read for fans of modern architecture and design.

The Mid Century Modern Garden

The Mid Century Modern Garden written by Ethne Clarke and has been published by Frances Lincoln this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2017 with Design categories.

A lavishly illustrated exploration of the prevalent architecture and landscaping style of the mid-century period (c.1940-1970) and its links with modern-day living, this sumptuous garden design book features examples of contemporary interpretations of the style as well as expert advice and tips on how you can achieve the style for yourself. In the second half of the twentieth century, outdoor living was born. Even modest homes were open plan with large picture windows that brought the outside in - and a deck or platform was the perfect answer to extending living outdoors. These lived-in spaces were easy to maintain with their limited plant palette and focus on structure and hard landscaping. They offered a space in which to relax and enjoy valuable leisure time, a pursuit that is as relevant now as it was then. Contrast was the design dynamic - a response to the energy that was fuelled by people's hope for a bright future after the Second World War. Outdoors this translated into a lively interplay of textures and colours between hardscaping materials, pieces of outdoor art and striking specimen plants. The first part of this seminal book charts the evolution of the MCM aesthetic starting with Frank Lloyd Wright's 'Usonion' houses and finishing with Cliff May's ranch houses looking at spaces outside and within and design influences from Europe. The second part focuses on classic and contemporary interpretations of the style in exceptional gardens from all over the world. It offers a unique insight into this period of seismic shift in garden design and will be a rich source of inspiration for garden makers today.

Metropolitan Home American Style

For well over twenty-five years, "Metropolitan Home magazine has celebrated--and reported on its pages--creative homeowners, artists, decorators, architects, knowing that sensitive home design takes more than just a good eye. It also requires a good inner ear, tuned to the landscape and to the true voice of the house. Listening to the urban beat, for example, designer Carl D'Aquino ran movie theater carpet, dancing with pattern, up a five-story stair in a New York townhouse. In Texas, architects Ted Flato and David Lake crafted a house from a vast metal toolshed, a typical outbuilding in those parts. And in Philadelphia, Glen Senk and Keith Johnson decorated largely with restraint, keeping their historic house unrenovated and pristine--though they weren't above aging an army green wall with a coat of black shoe polish. The thirty-nine houses presented here are packed with design lessons. Each is a mix of inspiration and evocation, imagination and expertise. And each is highly adaptable for houses and apartments in other parts of the country. To lay these design lessons bare, American Style features dozens of Metropolitan Home magazine's trademark "What the Pros Know" boxes, which spell out the small but vital arts of the design trade: how to paint "ruined" walls, apply silver leaf to a cabinet, specify a heat-efficient fireplace, or adapt a Miami home's tropical-fruit palette to Northern cities with less brazen light. American Style aims at a balance: a home that expresses both the character of its occupant as well as its own unique niche on this earth . . . a home that achieves pride of place. "Metropolitan Home, since its inception as Apartment Life, has become therecognized authority on home design and how we live today. Notable both for its friend-to-friend voice and real-life ideas, it has chronicled our life in city, town, and country for well over twenty-five years.
