Beschreibung

How could our gardens grow? Designer and broadcaster Mark Lane considers the green spaces of the future, amazing advances in gardening technology, and the challenges of an increasingly extreme climate... As our world continues to change, the gardeners of the future will face many obstacles and dilemmas: from adjusting our practices to less predictable weather conditions and tighter areas, to finding a happy coexistence with AI as it becomes more prevalent in our digital and physical equipment. But there is still joy to be found through plants. Whether it's a window box on a balcony, a neighbourhood vegetable patch, or a field of wild flowers, Lane presents a vision of gardens for everyone: providing crucial microclimates for wildlife, acting as community hubs, and potentially transforming our physical and mental health. He even imagines gardening in space: what might horticulture look like as we begin to populate distant worlds? The Future of Gardens looks at this evergreen discipline with a bold, vibrant and inquisitive eye. Lane's own vision for inclusivity, sustainability and forward -thinking design shines throughout this extraordinary addition to the FUTURES Series.
