This Second Edition of Introduction to Landscape
Design offers even broader coverage of the environmental, human,
technological, and aesthetic issues associated with landscape
design than the first edition. Beginning with the way we
perceive, manage, and design the landscape, it moves on to
explore the forces that influence land design. An overview of
landscape management, planning, and design includes a discussion
of the roles and integration of the professions involved, modes
of professional practice, and site scale design processes. The
book explores the ecology of design and the integration of land
design decisions into dynamic systems. This fully updated new
edition:
Presents landscape design as a synergism of art and
science
Addresses the interplay between buildings and sites
Provides insights into the breadth of people-environment
relationships
Places special emphasis on our growing understanding of
interrelationships between the landscape and human decisions
A superb introduction for students as well as a useful
reference for practicing professionals, this book is an
excellent guide for anyone who wants to develop a better
understanding of landscape design. 384 pp.
