I bought this book because I am a designer in the Northeast, and I was impressed with several of the author's projects for high profile clients. From what I understand, 'Heaven is a Garden' is essentially the Cliffs Notes to Johnsen's graduate school design studio at Columbia University. I have met a few of her students, and a few of her clients. The common reaction that I get from them is that she seems to have an inner gift for visiting a site and immediately recognizing its specific strengths and weaknesses. After reading the book, it is clear to me that Johnsen makes it look easy because she is passionate about the subject and because she has spent decades developing her talents. Like any successful designer, this is a woman who pays very careful attention to every detail, and leaves nothing to chance. The book itself is a perfect example. When it arrived I was surprised by the 8.5"x8.5" dimensions. I own two bookcases full of garden design books, and virtually all of them are oversized. When I opened it, it immediately became clear to me that the size was no accident. Neither is its sturdy construction. I can't remember the last hardcover garden book I bought that didn't have a paper jacket. Evidently Johnsen intended to write a book that any designer could keep handy and refer to continually -from someone working in their own yard, to a professional like myself. I'm putting it right into my work bag, next to my plant identification books, my 200ft tape measure and my graph paper. A common axiom in the trade is that there are no "new" ideas: "Take what you like, and make it your own." 'Heaven is a Garden' is packed with historical references, cultural inspirations and unconventional insights that prepare the reader to find the unique qualities (and avoid costly mistakes) for every site. Thanks to this book, I will be borrowing ideas from Johnsen for years to come.
