Course Description
Come join Lauren as she tackles one of the most vexing subjects, garden design. Lauren has long been skeptical of many design tenets, believing that there isn’t any one particular way to design and even the most popular theories often don’t hold. Instead, she believes there are ways of seeing and thinking that can awaken originality and flow in the process, and that ultimately lead to a creation with atmosphere and sense of place. We’ll explore useful perspectives rather than hard and fast rules, with examples from diverse sites from her almost four decades of creating gardens for herself and others.
