Much to delight, below.
Garden design with only 2 elements. Meadow & vine. A combination from agrarian ideals.

A duo screaming, This is not in USA ! At the minimum, not a USA garden designer.
.
How do I know? There is no monoculture lawn, green meatballs + concrete sidewalk from the French doors. 'That' type of garden design is pure post industrial.
.
I 'see' gardens before architecture + interiors.

Pic Michele Bonan. Liked Bonan for his garden, above, then discover he does architecture and yacht design too. Of course, he is not American. Italian. Alas, an American 'designer' working for a typical design-build-maintain landscape company would be fired for the garden design, above. Why? Not much money in meadow + vine. Agrarian derivatives are human factored, sustainable, Nature. Post industrial derivative landscapes are consumer, $$$, driven.

Yes, been reading Wendell Berry in the tub again ! When you have time, click the link, it's a fabulous interview with Berry by Bill Moyers.

Love how you pegged it NOT USA!Of course, it is a feast for the eyes............unlike a lot of gardens here in California!BORING.........no souls.Plus, they always want natives..........I guess that could be a good thing but the natives do not do what vines and meadows do for me!
Thanks. I never miss one of your posts. Treats, each of them, like little vacations with lessons sewn in.
