    Sir Ebenezer Howard envisioned a utopian urban landscape where humanity exists in perfect harmony with the natural world, a concept detailed in his seminal publication Garden Cities of To-morrow. This influential work sparked the Garden City movement, leading to the establishment of several such communities across Great Britain in the early twentieth century. His ideas offered a blueprint for a more integrated and balanced way of living, merging urban development with ecological principles.

      The classic work that introduced the concept of the Garden City. Originally published in 1898 as To-Morrow: A Peaceful Path to Real Reform and reissued in 1902 under its present title, Garden Cities of To-Morrow holds a unique place in town planning literature. The book led directly to two experiments in town-founding that have had a profound influence on practical urban development around the world. The book was also responsible for the introduction of the term Garden City, and set into motion ideas that helped transform town planning.
