Book Description
While Maybeck's architectural career has been firmly established, little writing has discussed and analyzed his ideas about landscape: here taken to include his garden designs-by which he integrated house and land-as well as his grand landscape schemes for sites such as Twin Peaks in San Francisco. Maybeck produced stunning-and at times gigantic-pastel drawings, many of which are reproduced here in color.
