Compendium of Architecture and Design of Open Spaces Hardcover

English edition by Karl H. C. Ludwig (Author)

Product description

This seminal work provides an overview of the entire creative field of contemporary landscape architecture. Every aspect of the design and production of these public and private spaces is themed and clarified. These spaces cover a wide variety, from classic garden and golf course design to green facades, from guerrilla gardens and cemeteries to roundabouts. The approximately three dozen chapters map out the various tasks and challenges in comprehensive introductions. Over 250 vividly illustrated case studies from around the world offer solutions and suggestions in the design process. Whether conservative in style and requiring little explanation, or flashy, even ostentatious, these projects are always inventive, unique and compelling, always seeking to redefine the relationship between humans and the natural world.
