Synopsis
If any one word were chosen to describe and encapsulate the current state of contemporary landscape design it would have to be diversity. Never before in the history of mankind has there been a more varied approach to designing our external surroundings, never before a more sophisticated understanding of their effect on the human psyche. Landscape Design Today is a highly diverse collection of unique landscape designs complete with photographs, ground-plans and explanatory notes by the designers that follow each phase of the design process step by step. Works featured include Museum and park kalkriese by Gigon/Guyer Architects; Parc Els Pinetons by Claudi Aguilo; Mountain Road Project by Jensen & Skoavin; The Anchor Park by Stig L. Andersson; Postindustrial Park by Topotek and Springtecture H by Shuhei Endo.
