A Sense of Harmony: Gardens of the Arts and Crafts Movement
Join The Institute of Classical Architecture & Art with a talk on The Arts and Crafts Movement, which is known for its rich legacy of architecture and decorative arts in both Britain and the United States. The movement also played an important role in defining the garden as a harmonious component of the house. Arts and Crafts gardens were designed with an appreciation for local craftsmanship and historical antecedents. The movement championed regional traditions, from the Cotswolds to New England. Beautiful flower borders, regional garden architecture, and a sense of intimacy are essential characteristics that can inspire today's gardens. A selection of gardens both old and new on both sides of the Atlantic will show the movement's diversity and appeal.
