Description
The urban landscape has changed dramatically over the past decade as cities worldwide implement revitalisation plans designed to keep urban areas vital and appealing for both tourism and residency. Bringing a sense of space and place to the public areas of urban cities is essential for the vitality of a city, and many cities are investing heavily in this type of urban development. "Urban Landscape Architecture" showcases the most interesting and innovative urban landscape design and reviews the work of great architects and designers in this area. Each project features sketches, drawings, and photographs and highlights the design details of note for the reader. The book will be of interest to anyone with an interest in architecture, and the colour photographs, along with the accessible and inspirational writing, will make this a popular and worthwhile read.
