Landscape designer Piet Oudolf describes his creative process, from his abstract sketches to his theories on beauty.

4/5

Oudolf is an intriguing figure, a gardener who prizes not flowers or decorative features or even colour but the muscularforms and textures of plants and grasses.

If you just want to potter blissfully for 75 minutes, this should do it.

3/4

Oudolf mentions in passing that his goal has been to create landscapes "you would dream of, but would never find" in nature, and from what we see in this movie, that's just what he's done.

This is a missed opportunity to raise consciousness about the nature of plants in general and a new philosophy of gardening in particular.

Thomas Piper's film could have dug deeper into the physical business of creating these gardens, but as a gentle stroll, it's thoroughly pleasant.

Beautiful movie, beautiful design esthetic. The coming together of mans creative vision, explored with the palette of plants. Maybe even one step further, a mans creative vision and nature's wild expression coming together in symbiosis.
