Bringing together ten amongst her most important gardens,
Tra giardino e paesaggio: scorci mediterranei dal Nord al Sud Italia is both a compendium of Anna Scaravella’s 30-year-long career as a landscape designer and a captivating journey through the changing Italian landscape.
The book—which spans the entire peninsula from Brianza to Apulia, passing through Umbria and Tuscany—includes designs dating back to the early 1990s, as well as more recent ones which stand out for their novel naturalistic approach and the innovative solutions they find to the challenges posed by climate change, and in particular the effects the latter is having on the Italian landscape.
By providing an account of this development, the book not only traces the evolving idea of Scaravella’s practice but also serves as an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the future of Italian gardens.
