Finally finished!

After a year, the German version of our book “EIN GARTEN AUS FUNDSTÜCKEN – A GARDEN OF FOUND OBJECTS” has finally been finished and available in bookstores.

We have tried the tedious way through the publishers and consistently get to hear that our book “unfortunately does not fit into the publishing concept“.

We therefore looked for the way to self-publishing and found “Books on Demand”, with which we had to fight for six months the various errors, defects and shortcomings.

The book can currently be ordered as a print on BOD, Amazon and other booksellers over the Internet. The e-book version will follow soon. We will keep informed you.

Next we want to publish the Hungarian version.

We are planning an event in late October to present our book and our completed projects. An invitation will follow soon.

For more information about the book or about the event please contact us at the email address: info@arshortus.com.

Short description:

This book shows the reader how objects that are no longer needed for their primary purpose can still be used. Here are many examples that can serve as a source of inspiration for new ideas.

You will also learn how to design and maintain a sustainable garden with your own resources, with little investment, and that a biological garden has a positive impact not only on plant diversity but also on the wildlife.

The book consists of 184 pages with 364 photos.



Status Autumn 2018

The garden catalog, which we made for the Spring garden day market in Schlosshof, was seen by many as enthusiastic. A friend said that we should make a book of it…
Since then we have been brooding over this project, writing texts, searching photos from our large archive, sorting, assigning, arguing, rejecting the whole thing and moving on.
This is probably the usual approach when something happens in team work.
Now we have the prototype in our hands and we are happy that we made it and confident that we will find a publisher as well.
That too occupied us in September.
