  Offering practical advice on how to maximize a garden's potential for a minimum amount of time and money, the author explains how to prioritize garden features according to resources and requirements, and how to match the right materials and designs to the right garden. The book is divided into four thematic sections featuring paths and patios, decorative dividers, seating sense and water features. The author is presenter of BBC Television's Gardens By Design and in this book he explains the general principles of how to build a range of garden necessities from steps or patios to fences and gates. The diagrams and text take the reader through every stage in making eight projects - decking, a barbecue, a support for climbing plants, a divider, a tree seat, an arbour, a pond and a fountain - that have been specially selected for their combination of good design and simple construction.
