Description
This second monographic magazine focusing on the urban park gives priority to large scale projects, and highlights the differences between gardens and parks. A park’s location within the urban fabric is important and this magazine is broken down into three types of parks:
Central Parks – is perhaps the most classical form of park but is increasingly difficult to find, it is a park which is surrounded by buildings and provides much needed oxygen in a clogged up city
Parks on Borders – these are parks where there are spaces of opportunity, transition and absorption between different types of land use
Connecting Parks – these are parks which connect infrastructures and become a new reference point in the urban fabric
In approaching the theoretical content of the urban park, this magazine takes an approach based on both what can be learned from the history of the park and on an ecological view of what it means to have these islands of life in our cities.
