Low effort, high comfort and a feeling of being in wonderful seclusion - this is how Daniel Nolan does gardens and our editor Pip Rich couldn't be more impressed

San Francisco-based landscape designer Daniel Nolan has made relaxed and inviting outdoor spaces full of lush planting and minimal hardscaping his signature. His beautiful coffee table book, Dry Gardens: High Style for Low Water Gardens, is published by Rizzoli.
