A groundbreaking book retracing the gardens created by the famous landscape artist over the last ten years
A groundbreaking book retracing the gardens created by the famous landscape artist over the last ten years
Jean Mus, Mediterranean landscape gardener, poet of plants and lover of nature, has designed more than 15.000 gardens around the world, from Provence to California.
A spiritual heir to Le Nôtre, Ferdinand Bac and Russell Page, he combines rigour, sensuality and naturalness. A patient surveyor, he creates landscapes that respect the genius of the place, the light, the wind and the local species. His gardens combine curving lines, water features, endemic vegetation and harmony of the five senses. Both rooted in tradition and subtly modern, they offer a breath of fresh air in the face of urbanisation.
Each creation celebrates life, beauty, freshness and shade, while telling a story. Mus does not seek to impose his hand, but to reveal nature. For him, a garden is a refuge, a place to share and to marvel. His style, discreet and sensual, enchants and connects man to the earth, with a thoughtful and poetic simplicity.
This book, which retraces the last ten years of the landscape artist's creative work, is a celebration of the beauty of the world and the joy of living.
