No matter what the architectural style of the moment, the green areas around houses, stadiums or corporate headquarters have taken on a considerable importance, all the more so with the emphasis on ecology and green design. This book calls on the work of the<strong>top designers of the moment</strong>, from <strong>Ken Smith</strong>, author of the Museum of Modern Art’s rooftop garden, to<strong>West 8</strong> from Rotterdam, but also on architects ranging from <strong>Steven Holl</strong> to <strong>Tadao Ando</strong>, who have long been fascinated by the environments of their buildings. There are new names like the Lebanese landscape architect<strong>Vladimir Djurovic</strong> and well-known ones like <strong>Renzo Piano</strong>. There are established firms, like the<strong>Wirtz family</strong> from Belgium or <strong>Gustafson Porter</strong> from the United States, and young creators like<strong>Sophie Agata Ambroise</strong> from Lugano. Landscape architecture may not always be easy to delimit, but this new book<strong>opens the doors and windows of today’s architecture into the gardens of tomorrow</strong>.</div><div> </div><div>Text in English, French, and German</div>
