Neue Garten- und Landschafts-Gebäude
Neue Garten- und Landschafts-Gebäude is a late eighteenth-century German pattern book of garden and landscape buildings, edited by Wilhelm Gottlieb Becker and published in 1798 for garden designers and patrons. Its plates show plans, elevations and sections of classical temple-fronts, doorways and pavilions drawn in clean line with grey wash. A designer could take from them the disciplined proportions of pediments, columns and symmetrical floor plans suited to garden architecture.
