Pinterest Has Changed Garden Design.
Pinterest and social media have transformed the way garden design projects begin, but not necessarily in the way most people think. In an age of endless inspiration, Brent Reid and Andrew Fisher Tomlin explore why the value of a garden designer no longer lies in finding ideas, but in interpreting them - and why learning to see differently is one of the most important skills a designer can develop.
