Abstract

In this chapter, the author, Chip Sullivan, discusses the visionary designs and drawings of Thomas Church and Garrett Eckbo from the 1940s and 1950s. Sullivan suggests that the media used by these two landscape architects had a profound influence on their creative processes and ultimately on the garden style that emerged. Their beaux-arts training provided Thomas Church and Garrett Eckbo with solid drawing and compositional skills while the tenets of Modernism gave them freedom to explore totally new forms of expression.
