Giubbini questions the figure of the landscape architect and re-evaluates global garden models through travel and studies. An essential text for enthusiasts and scholars, which stimulates reflection and study on the identity of gardens and landscape.<\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Testo (70) + Img (30)&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;2_3,1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>The Garden of Misunderstandings: That&#8217;s why the landscape designer doesn&#8217;t exist!<\/h2>\n<p>Reading The Garden of Misunderstandings is not easy: cultured, reasoned,\u00a0with historical quotations that continually take you to the internet.
