Beyond wild : gardens and landscapes by Raymond Jungles /

Valkenburgh, Michael Van

Beyond wild : gardens and landscapes by Raymond Jungles / introduction by Michael Van Valkenburgh ; edited by Amanda Eva Jungles. - New York : The Monacelli Press, ©2021 - 255 pages : color illustrations, plans ; 25 x 28 cm

For almost 40 years, Raymond Jungles has generated design solutions that respond to surrounding natural systems while restoring nature's balance and harmony on a micro-scale. His completed gardens personify timelessness and beauty, with verdant spaces that entice participation and soothe the psyche. This monograph, the fourth to focus on his work, will present 21 completed projects, along with a section of work in progress featuring sketches, renderings, and site plans of 12 current projects of varying typologies including an 18-acre Phipps Ocean Park in the Town of Palm Beach, Florida. Among the featured works are major landscapes surrounding luxury residential complexes as well as lush private gardens from the mountains in Mexico to volcanic craters in Panama, Caribbean beachfronts, the Florida Keys, and densely populated cities like Manhattan and Miami. Highlights include the restoration of the famed interior garden by the revered landscape architect Dan Kiley at the Ford Foundation Center for Social Justice in New York; a landscape to evoke the work of legendary Brazilian designer Roberto Burle Marx at the New York Botanical Garden, and two new gardens at the the Naples Botanical Garden. Founded in 1985 by Raymond Jungles, the firm's design priorities are generated by the scale and functionality of a space. Simple, clean, and well-detailed hardscape elements are the quintessential bones of a garden. Planting volumes vary and bold colors and textures are used with intent. The firm is guided by Raymond's personal and design principles: integrity, relevance, and nature?s honor. Their informed designs tread lightly on the land, provide habitat, and incorporate elements of surprise.-- Source other than the Library of Congress.
