The two biomes that form its centrepiece have become iconic structures, already familiar the world over. This book, illustrated with drawings and plans from the Nicholas Gimshaw archive and Richard Kalina's photographs, reveals in detail just how a disused china clay pit became the home to one of the architectural wonders of the world. The introductory essay, by lead architect Andrew Whalley and Hugh Pearman, Sunday Times architectural correspondent, places the biomes in the great English tradition of greenhouses that started with Joseph Paxton.

Summary:
Today, landscape architecture often stands at the centre of attention – perhaps more frequently than is desirable for its own sake? Designing with “nature”, whether in urban spaces or in company grounds, at horticultural shows or in “temporary gardens” generates an attractive and immediate emotional impact. It is not just architects and artists who incorporate landscape features in their designs today, but also local authorities and well-known companies wishing to promote an image of ecological responsibility combined with innovative design. The result is a kind of landscape-based event culture with popular appeal. “Event Landscape?” describes the current state of this wide-sweeping development. A wide array of recent landscape designs with detailed information are presented, revealing how landscape architecture can play a part in solving major issues of public space: the sustainable renewal of towns, the transformation of farmland into new cultural landscapes, the role of historic gardens and parks.

The great parks and gardens of Europe come alive by the skillful interplay of natural landscape and architectural elements. Throughout the ages, however, this relationship has been treated in very different ways.

Summary:
The great parks and gardens of Europe come alive by the skillful interplay of natural landscape and architectural elements. Throughout the ages, however, this relationship has been treated in very different ways. The gardens of the Italian renaissance in the 15th or 16th century were based on rational plans, whereas the French parks of the Baroque period seem rather more geometric in design, and the English parklands of the 18th century present a scenic composition. In this publication famous historical gardens from all over Europe are analysed, and these graphic analyses allow us to see into the mind of the designers. By highlighting the design processes, they also function as models for future landscape projects. More than 30 renowned gardens have been examined and documented with a wealth of illustrations. Amongst the parks presented are Palladio’s Villa Emo, the perfect order of the Baroque garden Vaux-le-Vicomte near Paris or the pastoral yet mysterious park of Blenheim Palace near Oxford.

An account by Frederic Eden - Gertrude Jekyll's brother-in-law and Sir Anthony Eden's great uncle - of a garden that he acquired, planted and cultivated around the turn of the 20th century. First published by "Country Life" in 1903, and reissued in France in 2002, this book is illustrated with woodcuts in the style of and period photographs, and tells the story of the creation of an English garden in the most improbable site imaginable on the Giudecca. The garden became, unsurprisingly, a resort of poets and aesthetes, and, having been given to the ex-queen of Aspasia and Yugoslavia, ended up as the property of the equally mad Austrian artist Hundertwasser. Now a "monumento nazionale", the Giardino Eden is still there, but closed to the public until funds for its restoration become available. Postface by Marie-Thérèse Weal.

Summary:
In this lavishly illustrated volume, Robin Karson traces the development of a distinctly American style of landscape design through an analysis of seven country places created by some of the nation's most talented landscape practitioners. In the mid-nineteenth century Frederick Law Olmsted, the designer of New York's Central Park, developed an approach to landscape design based on the principles of the English Picturesque which also emphasized a specifically American experience of nature and scenery. After Olmsted's retirement in 1897, these precepts continued to ground a new generation of American landscape architects through the next four decades, a period known as the “country place era,” a time of rapid economic, social, and cultural change. The chapters in this book trace a progression in the period from the naturalistic wild gardens of Warren Manning to the mysterious “Prairie style” landscapes of Jens Jensen to the proto-modernist gardens of Fletcher Steele. Other practitioners cov ered are Charles Platt, Ellen Biddle Shipman, Beatrix Farrand, Marian Coffin, and Lockwood de Forest Jr. The projects profiled follow a broad geographic arc, from Stockbridge, Massachusetts, to Santa Barbara, California. All seven landscapes are now open to visitors.
