520 1 $a"Riverside, Illinois, heralded and admired for its innovative suburban plan, was designed in 1869 by renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted and his professional partner, architect Calvert Vaux, Their unique plan, which showcased the contours of the land and emphasized building setbacks with sidewalks, curvilinear streets, and open spaces, remains a model today for landscape historians and New Urbanists alike. No wonder thousands of people visit Riverside each year." "Riverside also inspired the greatest designers of the time to undertake projects there, among them the Avery Coonley estate, a rare joint effort by architect Frank Lloyd Wright and landscape architect Jens Jensen that is now a National Historic Landmark. An integral part of the estate is the single-family residence known as the Gardener's Cottage, a small but unassuming masterpiece built for the estate's gardener and his wife. The cottage not only matches Wright's architectural aesthetic for the estate, bur its stunning gardens inspired by Jensen reflect the overall emphasis by Olmsted and Vaux on integrating nature into the suburban landscape." "What is it like to live in a "small masterpiece" of architectural art and landscape design? Current owner and writer Cathy Jean Maloney here records her discoveries and personal reflections on living in the Gardener's Cottage with her family. She describes the cottage's beginnings and provides biographical background and insight into the estate, the cottage, and Riverside's key creators. She also highlights the often overlooked beauty of the cottage and how it is emblematic of Wright and Jensen's holistic Prairie Style approach to architecture and landscape design." "The Gardener's Cottage in Riverside, Illinois is a welcome and original addition to the work of "three great American titans" in architecture, landscape architecture, and planning: Frank Lloyd Wright, Jens Jensen, and Frederick Law Olmsted."--BOOK JACKET.
