Re Envisioning Landscape Architecture - by Catherine Spellman (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The relationship between landscape and architecture became strained in the early years of the Modern movement, when, in their respective efforts to idealize and universalize the construction of place, these two disciplines parted ways. Re-envisioning Landscape/Architecture aims to create a platform where they can be reunited in critical dialogue. The essays collected herein were originally brought together at a symposium and lecture series organized by the School of Architecture at Arizona State University and devoted to reconsidering architecture and landscape as two complementary pieces of the same puzzle.
