Inhaltsangabe

"Landscape architecture s potential does not lie in a unified profession, but in polarization." This key idea of author Thies Schröder is reflected in the diverse approaches of the 14 offices whose work we now present in updated portraits of improved quality. Reactions to Changes in Scenery: "Thies Schröder s book shows us that we are at a very specific moment of change and exchange in the history of European landschape architecture." Christophe Girot, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology "...altogether a refreshing read ... it is to be hoped that it will find an audience outside landscape architecture circles." TOPOS "For all who are curious to see landscapes as art and for all who are looking for inspiration." The Single Family Home "These are no longer gardens as we have hitherto known them." FAZ

Reseña del editor

The ongoing "Changes in Scenery" are presented in the form of current work by landscape architects from eight countries. Gardens, courtyards, city squares and parks - as classical projects by landscape architects - are joined by designs showing co-operation with other disciplines: from large-scale traffic planning via the conversion of industrial monuments and right on to video art - and of course, as a constant theme, fruitful encounters with architecture.
