The Architecture of Western Gardens presents an international tour of garden design from the Renaissance to the present. As object and as literature, it is a sumptuous and unprecedented resource. The more than seventy essays by scholars from Europe and America all commissioned for this book - and over 650 illustrations raise the standard of garden literature to a new level. The result is an invaluable compendium that will serve as a fundamental starting point for exploring the many expressions of the place where nature and culture, project and diversion, work and pleasure meet.

Organized chronologically, the essays and illustrations make up a mosaic of the garden in the Western world. The humanist garden in Renaissance Italy, the concepts of the "Sublime" and the "Picturesque," mazes, grottoes, and other curiosities, city parks, American land art, and even Disneyland are among the topics treated. Discussions of characteristic aspects of history and theory are followed by analyses of individual gardens as paradigms of their type: the Hortus Palatinus in Heidelberg, the Parc Monceau in Paris, the Park Güell in Barcelona, Stowe in England, and many more.

The illustrations are a model of how iconography can function as text. They include ground plans meticulously redrawn from original archival material to provide precise information on the scale and nature of many of the projects, as well as a wealth of drawings, reconstructions, paintings, and photographs.

Nice
Its cool, I like the packaging as well as how much product you get for the price. It has a lightweght water-gel texture, it feels nice to apply. I dont think it helps much with redness unless you really have rosacea then maybe a little bit. But anyways, I really love this brand.

Lightweight and gentle on sensitive skin
I like this moisturizer a lot. It feels light on the skin, absorbs nicely, and doesn’t leave me feeling greasy afterward. The formula is comfortable for daily use, offers decent consistency, and I appreciate that it’s fragrance-free. The quality is better than expected, especially for trying a new-to-me brand. I have very acne-prone skin and a lot of products leave me red due to sensitivity, so it's nice finding one that doesn't agitate my skin. For the size and how easily it fits into a routine, I think the value is good. It’s one I’d keep around, especially when I want something simple and calming.

The pads have changed but still a good product
I have been using these make up remover pads for many years now and will continue to use them. I like the 3 pack so that I do not run out. I usually only use 1 pad a day so a 3pk will last me for a long while. I do not have any issues with the pads drying out in the time frame from opening them to using the last one so that is a major plus. I have no issues with these on my skin or that close to my eyes and they do a great job of removing my mascara, which is the only make up I use. I recommend them. I will say that in 2025 they have changed the material for their pads, they are now thinner and do not have the texture they used to have which for me the only difference is that they can be a bit more difficult to separate but nothing to complain about.

Amazing make-up remover pads, that work just as well as oil base ones, without the oil.
I have tried many many make-up removers and I always come back to this one. I stumbled onto this one at a pharmacy a long time ago, and I can honestly say it's the best. I have tried many others since, high end, lower end, but this is my favorite. it's obviously extremely convenient, being in a pad, rather than having to wet a pad yourself, which poses a host of problems. Sometimes you run out of pads and you have to use toilet paper, which sucks, sometimes it spills, which you them have to clean, making an annoying two step process even more annoying, by it being a three step process. These convenient pads, a one step process, are so great, because unlike most other pads I tried, these are moist. I tried so many pads that lose their moisture after you open the package, and these remain very moist. I love that its a twist off cap. Also, they are the best at removing eye makeup, better than anything I tried, except for oil pads, HOWEVER, unlike oil pads, these do not make your vision blurry and get into your eye. This brand also makes oil pads, which i dislike. Oil always manages to get into my eyes, but the thing about oil pads is that they work at removing makeup. Well Guess what?!?! These work as well, WITHOUT THE OIL!!! And they DON'T dry out your eyes and face. Love them.
