Il invite à discerner le potentiel de tout lieu pour l'investir, l'améliorer, reconquérir la biodiversité et faire passer la nature d'un statut dérisoire, voire inexistant, à un statut remarquable.

Le règne végétal peut enfin reprendre ses droits ! Fainéants, rebelles, fauchés, écolos... découvrez, au fil des pages de ce petit livre, les conseils et astuces (à transgresser bien évidemment) qui vous permettront de " punkiser " efficacement votre jardin. De quoi joyeusement lier transgression et transition.

Summary:
The Villa d'Este is a 16th-century villa in Tivoli, near Rome, internationally renowned for its terraced hillside Italian Renaissance garden containing an outstanding array of fountains, nymphaea, grottoes, water features and atmospheric sound effects. Named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001, the garden is widely considered to be one of the finest examples of Italian Renaissance gardens in Europe. Villa d’Este was first conceived of in 1550 by the governor of Tivoli, Cardinal Ippolito II d’Este, who had long envisioned a garden built on the slopes of the valley known as Valle Gaudente. But it was only after 1560 that the villa’s architectural and iconological blueprint was defined by painter-archaeologist-architect Pirro Ligorio and executed by court architect Alberto Galvani. When Ippolito d’Este died in 1572, the project was nearly complete.
