"Japanese gardens are well-known in the world for their full integration of natural and man-made beauty, with a peculiar touch of Japanese aesthetics. The Zen style can be found in various landscapes created by the Japanese. With their artistic conception of Zen, they could enrich a limited space with poetic senses and ambiances. Japanese landscapes are divided into three types in this book: Japanese Gardens, Public Realm and Interior Landscapes. Forty projects located mainly in Japan, created by Japanese landscape architects, are selected to present the essence of contemporary Japanese landscape design. Hopefully inspirations could be offered to those who are keen on making references from Japanese landscapes."--
