Climate change, natural resource use, population shifts, and many other
factors have all changed the demands we place on landscape designs.
Projects now have to help connect neighborhoods, absorb stormwater, cool
urban centers, and provide wildlife habitats. Landscapes of Change
examines how these challenges drive the design process, inspire new
design strategies, and result in innovative works that are redefining
the field of landscape architecture. In twenty-five case studies from
around the world, Roxi Thoren explores how the site can serve as the
design generator, describing each project through the physical,
material, ecological, and cultural processes that have shaped the site
historically and continue to shape these ground-breaking projects.
