Abstract

Industrialisation, mechanisation and expansion have wrought profound changes on European cities and the surrounding landscapes in the last century. As regards the positive social and healthy development of inhabitants, landscape planning has become an integral part of all urban planning. Sometimes it is possible to truly merge nature and architecture. best of DETAIL Landscape presents highlights of the past few years from DETAIL: buildings that disappear into their surroundings, lush meadows revealed as roofscapes only after closer inspection, paths and walkways through jungle-like gardens. Architecture and cities can no longer be counterpoints to nature and the landscape. Rather they should strive to create stunning symbioses. Industrialisierung, Technisierung und Expansion haben Europas Stadte und die umgebenden Landschaften im letzten Jahrhundert tiefgreifend verandert. Im Hinblick auf eine positive soziale und gesundheitliche Entwicklung des Menschen wurde Landschaftsplanung nach und nach zum festen Bestandteil jeglicher Stadtentwicklung. Manchmal gelingt es, Natur und Architektur in besonderem Mae zu verbinden - best of DETAIL Landschaft zeigt die Highlights der vergangenen Jahre aus DETAIL: Gebaude, die mit der Umgebung verschmelzen, saftige Wiesen, die man erst auf den zweiten Blick als Dachlandschaften erkennt, Wege und Stege durch dschungelartige Parkanlagen. Architektur und Stadt mussen keine Kontrapunkte sein zu Natur und Landschaft, im Gegenteil: bestenfalls entstehen beeindruckende Symbiosen.

Abstract

Juan Grimm is considered the father of landscape architecture in Chile. His designs persistently underscore the sublimities of nature and incorporate the environments surrounding them. Although he works mainly with local flora, he creates breathtakingly new landscape textures. As South America's most important landscape architect, he has designed and built nearly one thousand hectares of garden, as well as private and public parks in Chile, Argentina, Peru, and Uruguay, including the gardens of the Bahá'í Temple in Santiago and of a Benedictine abbey. Featuring drawings, photographs, interviews, and extensive companion essays, this book presents Grimm's body of work, his methods, his sources of inspiration, and his artistic aims. Selected examples, ranging from small gardens to large parks, illustrate Grimm's development over the course of thirty years. At the same time, it is not only Grimm's work that is on display, but the model of Chilean landscape architecture of which his work is exemplary.

Abstract

Stadsnatuur maken is een inspiratie- en voorbeeldboek voor natuurinclusief ontwerpen in de Noordwest-Europese stad.Het boek roept op tot het integreren van natuur in het ontwerp van gebouwen en stedelijke buitenruimten en het geeft daarbij praktische voorbeelden en ontwerphandreikingen. De stad is een rijke biotoop met een grote biodiversiteit. Veel dier- en plantensoorten komen inmiddels meer in de stad voor dan in het buitengebied.De auteurs zien natuur als een integraal onderdeel van het stedelijke organisme en als zodanig van belang voor de leefbaarheid van de stad. Natuurinclusief ontwerpen is een pionierspraktijk, en pas recent onderdeel van de stadsplanning. Vanuit verschillende invalshoeken; de theorie van ecologie en biodiversiteit, stadsgebonden soorten, stedelijke biotopen en onderhoud van stadsnatuur worden in deze publicatie aan de hand van inspirerende en praktische voorbeelden besproken.De auteurs zijn lid van de stichting De Natuurlijke Stad, een samenwerkingsverband van architecten, biologen en stadsecologen met veel ervaring in de praktijk en theorie van het natuurinclusief ontwerpen in de stad.

Abstract

Contemplative landscape and contemplative space are familiar terms in the areas of design, landscape architecture and architecture. Krinke and her highly regarded contributors set out to explore definitions, theories, and case studies of contemplative landscapes. The contributors, Marc Treib, John Beardsley, Michael Singer, Lance Neckar, Heinrich Hermann and Rebecca Krinke have spent their careers researching, critiquing, and making landscapes. Here they investigate the role of contemplative space in a post-modern world and examine the impact of nature and culture on the design or interpret

Abstract

City and country—these terms are generally regarded as opposites. The urban, with its constructed spaces and places, is separated from nature, with its mature landscapes and clearings. Yet, today’s landscape architecture explores both of them as a single system, making it possible to see the mutual dependency of these supposedly opposing developments. In view of massive changes in ecological systems, as well as increasing migration and the spread of unplanned human settlements, landscape architecture is also being confronted with global challenges. This catalogue is a plea to redefine the discipline’s position. Innovative but complex approaches are presented in examples of specific projects from all over the world. Landscape architecture today commits itself to the spatial systems that will shape tomorrow’s society.

Abstract

Concrete horizons, urban sprawl, high-density living: never have our cities and their buildings been in greater need of greening. Yet what’s required is more than an occasional vertical garden or living roof. Featuring seventy projects from around the world – some built, some ongoing, some from the future – Garden City looks at the increasingly inventive ways in which architects and designers are incorporating nature into the built environment, transforming the city for the benefit of all.
