A view is a scene observed from a given vantage point... A view must be analyzed and composed with keenly perceptive artistry to utilize even a fraction of the full dramatic potential. Like other landscape features, the view by its handling may be preserved, neutralized, modified, or accentuated... A view is a picture to be framed, an evolving panorama of many blending facets. A view is a theme... A view is a constantly changing mood conveyed by association, light, and color. A view is a limit of visual space. It transcends the boundaries of the site... A view is a backdrop. It may serve as the wall of a garden or as a mural in a room. A view is the setting for architecture. 2, record 1, English, - view

Lay down a carpet bed-No Victorian garden would be complete without carpet bedding. In keeping with the outdoor room concept, these bright, tapestry like flower beds were the Persian rugs of the Victorian garden.

Dans les jardins irréguliers, dits «paysagers», on utilisait au siècle dernier la corbeille, dérivée de formes géométriques courbes (ovale, ove, rond, croissant, etc.), dont le profil était bombé et s'associait au vallonnement des pelouses. La forme des corbeilles était en harmonie avec la courbe des allées. On installait à l'intérieur de cette corbeille un dessin géométrique plus ou moins compliqué et l'on traitait chaque élément du dessin avec des plantes différentes : c'était la mosaïculture. Cette mode fut très répandue à la fin du XIXe siècle et au début du XXe siècle. 3, record 2, French, - mosa%C3%AFculture

A kakemono... is a Japanese scroll painting, an ink-and-brush painting that hangs in a recess in a traditional Japanese house. In a teahouse, or the room called a chashitsu, which is located in a secluded garden setting away from the main dwelling, the choice of the kakemono and its complementary flower arrangement help set the spiritual mood of the ceremony itself, in perfect harmony with the time of year. 3, record 3, English, - kakemono

The modern garden prototype emerged out of a changed conception of what a garden should be.... It is typically small and enclosed by fences or walls, frequently confined to the back of the lot, the front being occupied with garage, guest parking and entry. The entire garden space is divided according to uses and the outdoor areas are connected by doors to the rooms of the house, e. g., kitchen to herbs, vegetables, garbage, and storage, living room to terrace and barbecue. It is used intensively for outdoor recreation, games, sunbathing, swimming, eating and drinking. Privacy is desirable. This garden type seems to represent the ideal for people of all income groups in many parts of the world today. 2, record 6, English, - modern%20garden

Le jardin moderne, que les paysagistes veulent rendre plus "fonctionnel" et mieux adapté aux loisirs, comprend essentiellement une surface gazonnée à peu près ininterrompue. Les allées compliquées ont presque entièrement disparu; seules subsistent, près de l'habitation, des voies d'accès, soulignées par une végétation appropriée. Ailleurs, on circule sur des dallages, sur des passe-pieds mis en évidence par une végétation pittoresque, arbustes aux rameaux divariqués, conifères aux branches étalées, plantes vivaces épanouies surtout au printemps et dont l'ensemble compose un décor aimable, varié et reposant. 2, record 6, French, - jardin%20moderne
