Design din have med farver er den første danske bog, der inddrager alle havens elementer, når denne skal farvesættes: Bygninger, hegn, stakitter, belægninger, havemøbler, småting – og selvfølgelig også planterne. Alt dette har stor betydning for det samlede indtryk og for, hvordan man føler sig tilpas i haven. Bogen gennemgår alle de forskellige elementer, der skal spille sammen og danne en harmonisk helhed. Den beskriver de enkelte farver, og hvorledes de påvirker os psykisk og fysisk; ved hjælp af farvecirklen gives der anvisninger på, hvorledes man kan farvesætte sin have ud fra enkle principper. Der beskrives både havens ”faste” inventar, planter, og velkomponerede bede til de forskellige årstider. INDHOLDET: Farvenes egenskaber og psykologi - Farvelære - Havens huse - Hegn, hække og låger Farveskift - Baggrunde - Havens gulv - Havens løse inventar - -Sådan maler du udendørs Kunsten at komponere et bed - Årstiderne - Planterne Alle kapitler er fyldt med inspirerende fotos, der viser huse, haveinventar og planter i forskellige farveholdninger og stilarter. Forfatteren har sit farvemæssige bagland i orden, med en uddannelse på Danmarks Designskole og flere års undervisning i farvelære. Hun har også selv afholdt kurser og holdt foredrag om emnet og har der udover mange års praktisk erfaring med farvesætning af både bolig og have.

Frank Erichsen - ung, seriøs bondemand på Djursland - giver i denne bog sit bud på, hvordan man på én sæson klarer: - at bygge et drivhus, - høste sine æbler og lave cider af dem (sammen med nabo Claude), - holde gæs og bygge dem et hus, - lave sin egen økse, - slå sit eget hø med egen hjemmekonstruerede le, - få det bedste udbytte af sine bønner i køkkenhaven – og få det daglige arbejde og familieliv til at gå op i en højere enhed. ”Siden ganske ung har jeg haft en stor interesse for at arbejde med det, man under en hat kan kalde for selvforsyning. Selvforsyning som målet og midlet for min tilværelse var dog noget der først langt senere kom ind i billedet. For mig var det og er det stadig den euforiske fornemmelse af at tilegne sig kundskaber, der gør en i stand til at klare sig selv, der var motivationen. Hvad end det så er at holde hest, sætte rypesnare, lufte en traktor eller dyrke gulerødder uden orm.”
Refreshing in tone and approach, this is an accessible, relatable guide to finding joy while having less.
Earth ovens combine the utility of a wood-fired, retained-heat oven with the ease and timeless beauty of earthen construction. Building one will appeal to bakers, builders, and beginners of all kinds, from: - the serious or aspiring baker who wants the best low-cost bread oven, to - gardeners who want a centerpiece for a beautiful outdoor kitchen, to - outdoor chefs, to - creative people interested in low-cost materials and simple technology, to - teachers who want a multi-faceted, experiential project for students of all ages (the book has been successful with everyone from third-graders to adults). Build Your Own Earth Oven is fully illustrated with step-by-step directions, including how to tend the fire, and how to make perfect sourdough hearth loaves in the artisan tradition. The average do-it-yourselfer with a few tools and a scrap pile can build an oven for free, or close to it. Otherwise, $30 should cover all your materials--less than the price of a fancy "baking stone." Good building soil is often right in your back yard, under your feet. Build the simplest oven in a day! With a bit more time and imagination, you can make a permanent foundation and a fire-breathing dragon-oven or any other shape you can dream up. Earth ovens are familiar to many that have seen a southwestern "horno" or a European "bee-hive" oven. The idea, pioneered by Egyptian bakers in the second millennium BCE, is simplicity itself: fill the oven with wood, light a fire, and let it burn down to ashes. The dense, 3- to 12-inch-thick earthen walls hold and store the heat of the fire, the baker sweeps the floor clean, and the hot oven walls radiate steady, intense heat for hours. Home bakers who can't afford a fancy, steam-injected bread oven will be delighted to find that a simple earth oven can produce loaves to equal the fanciest "artisan" bakery. It also makes delicious roast meats, cakes, pies, pizzas, and other creations. Pizza cooks to perfection in three minutes or less. Vegetables, herbs, and potatoes drizzled with olive oil roast up in minutes for a simple, elegant, and delicious meal. Efficient cooks will find the residual heat useful for slow-baked dishes, and even for drying surplus produce, or incubating homemade yogurt.
