The Landscape of Home
Available March 2024
The Landscape of Home presents homes in the countryside, along the coast, and in town—and features a rich diversity of projects, from country estates to rooftop gardens. In it, we discuss the essential elements in the firm’s work: the importance of the procession of entry to a house, as well as its context in the landscape; the positioning of plant life and trees; the way people move into and through a property; and the way a garden looks and changes through the seasons.
“Ed paints with the palette of the plants and sculpts with the forms of trees and shrubs…the gardens he creates seem in total harmony with the house and the land.”
—Bunny Williams, Foreword, The Landscape of Home
The Good Garden
The Landscape Architecture of Edmund Hollander
“Known for his prolific work on the estates of New York’s Long Island, Edmund Hollander creates grand gardens to embrace the palatial homes that dot the enclaves of the Hamptons: majestic oak allées leading to shingled manses, sharply sculpted hedges ringing sleek contemporary piles. In The Good Garden, Hollander explores the alchemy that connects landscape to residence. The volume, helpfully divided into sections by element—such as borders, hedges, and pool plantings—offers verdant insight into the poetic ways nature can improve and enhance architecture. It’s lush, leafy escapism of the highest order.”
