Inhaltsangabe

What makes a visually appealing landscape? How can the design and use of a landscape be harmonized? These are just some of the questions tackled in this approach to landscape design, which translates a range of design principles to explain how landscapes are "put together" and how we perceive patterns in all types of landscape (urban, recreation, countryside, farm, forestry). The book is illustrated using both abstract and real examples taken from a wide range of international locations together with cross-referencing between related principles and case studies, demonstrating how principles can be applied to visually creative design and management. A unique feature of the book is the author's presentation of a vocabulary of visual design, structured in a logical sequence which makes the book accessible to non-designers who need to know about visual design in their work. There is also a glossary of terms which may be unfamiliar to those coming to design for the first time.
