As a floor, earth can be seen as an abstract surface. If apparently level, with just enough slope for drainage, it is ready to be covered with paving, grass, ground cover, or other planting, which is necessary to prevent dust in dry weather and mud in wet weather; if sloping or irregular, earthwork may be necessary to conform to new construction or to the design plan, to provide adequate drainage, or in order to relate properly to neighbouring topography and views. 1, record 1, English, - neighbouring%20views

Il est indispensable [...] de donner au jardin la plus large perspective, la vue la plus intéressante sur le site environnant : vallée, forêt, cours d’eau, ou plus simplement sur un élément de ce paysage, groupes d’arbres, clocher, ou même à défaut sur les frondaisons d’un jardin ou parc voisin. Dans le cas d’une vue particulièrement agréable, c'est toute l'organisation du jardin qui lui sera en quelque sorte subordonnée. Certaines lignes pourront contribuer à guider l'œil vers cet élément d’intérêt, ou bien la pelouse s’étendra dans la direction voulue, et des arbres encadreront la vue sans qu'aucun point dans le jardin ne sollicite en même temps, et ne retienne sur lui l'attention. 1, record 1, French, - vue%20sur%20le%20site%20environnant

As the garden was in effect a complex of linked, related, but distinct sensations, seats and shelters were situated at chosen spots so that the pleasures that had been meticulously prepared for could be quietly savoured. Kiosks and pavilions were built at places where the dawn could best be watched or where the moonlight shone on the water or where autumn foliage was seen to advantage or where the wind made music in the bamboos. 1, record 2, English, - shelter

(...) une construction légère, qui peut servir d’abri, de coin de repos, de belvédère donnant la vue sur le paysage environnant, se justifie pleinement dans une grande propriété.(...) il y a lieu de songer(...) aux éléments plus utilitaires destinés à abriter pour la durée d’une averse les jeux des enfants, ou bien encore à protéger des ardeurs du soleil les spectateurs d’une partie de tennis, tandis que l'édicule rend de grands services pour ranger les meubles de plein air ou les outils de jardinage. Ce genre d’abri ne nécessite pas une solidité à toute épreuve. 2, record 2, French, - abri%20de%20jardin
