Summary:
The treatment of brownfield sites has become a pressing issue for national and local government, urban planners, developers and designers. Whereas only too often the approach to remediation has been driven by economics and litigation, this title seeks an alternative in proposing an unprecedented weaving together of the naturalist and urbanist. It effectively brings together those in the vanguard of conceptualising this situation from a multiplicity of viewpoints and disciplines. Highlights include an interview with Renzo Piano and features on the work of Glenn Murcutt and sculptor Andy Goldsworthy.
