The Garden of Peter Marino

The Garden of Peter Marino

The internationally acclaimed architectâ€™s grounds of his Hamptons estate on Long Island, New Yorkâ€”a lush garden oasis masterfully transformed over the course of two decades.
Â
Peter Marinoâ€™s quintessentially American landscape is a combination of organizational rigor and a joyful informality in the use of plant materials. The gardens feature carefully curated plants, trees, and flowers on twelve acres including a â€œcolor wheelâ€ of purple, pink, red, and yellow gardens, evergreen trees, an apple orchard, a formal rose garden, and nearly forty works of art by FranÃ§ois-Xavier and Claude Lalanne. Seasonal floral highlights include the colorful blooms of azaleas in the late spring, roses in June, and hydrangeas in the summer.
Â
This book shows the landscape in different seasons and moods, captured in both a laid-back grandeurâ€” sunny vistas, moonlit moments, the beauty of natural elements and sublime works of artâ€”and in a moody atmosphere, when the dramatic light after a summer storm imbues the garden with a romantic haze. The garden is presented as a picturesque example of a first-rate contemporary landscape and as a dreamlike Eden.
