Description
As the twenty-first century proceeds, there has been a growing interest in landscape design as a professional field of study.
'Modern Landscape' is an examination of recent projects and includes schemes by both architects and landscape architects, often working in collaboration from a range of international locations.
This new release focuses on recent works to illustrate the ways in which landscape architecture has broken new ground, and how its sphere of activity has extended public awareness of the importance of maintaining our natural landscapes.
Following an introductory essay, the book is arranged into four sections, each dealing with different aspects of landscape design. The case-study projects, which have all been completed in the past five years, are discussed in detail and related to their historical context and influences.
Featured architects include; Martha Shwartz (USA), Tadao Ando (Japan), Colvin & Moggridge (UK), Hans Hollein (Austria) and West 8 (The Netherlands).
