Sharawadgi

Sharawadgi or sharawaggi is a style of landscape gardening or architecture in which rigid lines and symmetry are avoided to give the scene an organic, naturalistic appearance. This concept was influential in English landscape gardening in the 18th century, starting with the reports from China of the Jesuit missionary, Father Attiret, and Sir William Temple's Upon the gardens of Epicurus. The style indicates a certain irregularity in landscape design or town planning. Sharawadgi was defined in the 1980s as an "artful irregularity in garden design and, more recently, in town planning."
