Overview


My Green Sanctuary is a must have coffee table book for the garden aficionados to be added in their collection. The book is written and published by Pn.Jamaliah Bt Hamdan who is the managing director of Serigreen Garden & Landscape Sdn Bhd. Her love and fondness for nature, plants and Malaysia is what gave her the idea to publish “My Green Sanctuary. The book contains a collection of over 700 photos of lush green spaces that enhance the comfort of 30 personal and private homes, historic natural treasures of public parks and natural attractions. The inspiration behind the creation of this coffee table book is when Pn.Jamaliah realize that there are limited coverage and recognition towards the beautiful garden landscapes in Malaysia. Thus, this book is published as an appreciation towards the beautiful landscape in Malaysia and the author hopes to spread the love of preserving and even inspire others to create their own green sanctuary wherever they are.
