Why? Because the rich tradition of garden design is the foundation and a source of inspiration to landscape architecture, to urban design and to city design. In the future we may say more as gardens move from the [6]<\/a> ground plane to vertical surfaces and [7] <\/a>roofs. Parc Eduardo VII in [8]<\/a> the city of Lisbon is an example of the axis and hedges of gardens informing the structuring of city vistas.<\/p>\n There is much to be said for the process of abstraction. Landscape architects, arguably coming into being with the [9]<\/a> English landscape tradition, have evolved a language and way of working of their own, which is continually evolving. Viva la difference!<\/p>\n
<\/a> It would be unfortunate to lose the distinction between [1] <\/a>garden design and [2]<\/a> [3]<\/a> landscape architecture much as the trend towards [4]<\/a> interior architecture is actually unfortunate for [5]<\/a> interior designers. The differences of focus and attention to scale provide a variety of design insights which are not replicated.<\/p>\n
