Description

400 pages, illustrated extensively with revealing photographic images; plus hand drawn and computer generated graphics. Landscape architects, architects, planners, engineers, ecologists or citizens passionate about their landscape habitat…this document will investigate the effect of design with the land and its future prospects in terms of quality and sustainability. This is also a plea for the world's future environment and the likely impacts of climate change. It has taken years to produce and is offered at a cost designed to appeal to students of landscape architecture interested in design that pursues essential ecological practices. In exploring this subject I have identified the projects that clearly identify the remarkable changes that landscape architecture and its many design collaborators can make to improve and make sustainable our world environment. From sites of dereliction to useful civic functions by design.
