From Formal to Wild: History of English Garden Design

Описание: Discover the fascinating history of English garden design in this deep dive into how these iconic landscapes evolved from rigidly formal Renaissance layouts to the romantic, naturalistic, and sustainable gardens we know today. From Roman courtyards and Tudor knot gardens to Capability Brown’s sweeping pastoral vistas, Gertrude Jekyll’s painterly cottage gardens, and today’s eco-friendly rewilding movement, this video explores how culture, art, and philosophy shaped English gardening through the centuries. Whether you’re passionate about garden history, love exploring design trends, or want inspiration for your own backyard, this journey reveals how English gardens continue to balance beauty, nature, and creativity.
