This
beautifully illustrated book takes the reader on a journey through a number of outstanding
gardens that have been landscaped by one of Australia’s leading landscape
designers, Dean Herald of ‘Rolling Stone Landscapes’. 21st
Century Residential Landscape Design showcases over 20 designs produced by Dean, who has
achieved the pinnacle of the landscape design industry in winning a gold medal
at the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society Chelsea Flower Show in London
and Australian Landscaper of the year.
The modern residential landscape has changed so
dramatically over the last 20 years with the indoor-outdoor concept becoming a
living space of the family home. Mixed with entertaining areas for alfresco
cooking/dining and the added excitement of a swimming pool design, you have a
relaxing atmosphere and a private retreat in your own backyard – this is 21st
Century Residential Landscape Design. The
relationship between garden and water has always been a wonderful combination
due to the tranquillity and enjoyment it delivers through sight, sound and use.

I received the book yesterday and it looks great, from that first meeting in your office a couple of years ago to now a finished publication which has ended up better then I first thought it would be.
Thank you both for your belief in my work and the manner in which you have displayed it. I hope it is a great success for you as a reward for your efforts.
