For this reason, the driving force behind any competent and creative planning solution is the imagination. The landscaping projects featured in this book mainly illustrate designs adopted for new sites and the expert restoration of others, including some with very different uses.

MAKING THE MOST OUT OF SPACE
The possibillities to design or modify the space in a home can be limited; one faces restrictions on the constructed surface space or the land to build on as well as economic and regulatory limitations. But even so, architects create innovative and original proposals that adapt to the requirements of the owners. The projects presented in this volume are the result of the changes made in private residences. The objective of these interventions is to enlarge spaces, personalize rooms, improve the distribution of space and make its use more rational.
