Summary:
Peter Walker and Partners / Nasher Sculpture Center Garden focuses on his garden in Dallas, Texas, a set of "outdoor galleries" showcasing the Nasher collection of modern and contemporary sculpture. A museum without a roof, the garden, with its subtle balance of art and nature, is also a serene urban park, whose beauty perfectly complements Renzo Piano's design for the center. Peter Walker's informative sketches, drawings, and plans, along with photographs of the final design, reveal the delicate balance between art, culture, and context at the heart of the Nasher Foundation Sculpture Garden.

Summary:
Gilles Clément confronts the homogenizing effects of globalization with the diversity of life. As a trained gardener, he places our current knowledge of plant utilization and ecology in the service of the "planetary garden," in which plant species from a tremendous variety of cultures are collected, composed, and carefully overseen in their development by the landscape designer. Clément has taken this approach, which was developed for private gardens, and worked with celebrated architects – most recently, Jean Nouvel – to apply it in his large city parks, including Parc Citroën, the park at the Grande Arche de La Défense, and the museum park at the Musée du Quai Branly in Paris. The high artistic caliber of his designs is attested by exhibitions and installations at the Canadian Centre for Architecture CCA in Montreal and the Centre Pompidou, where they stand beside the work of Daniel Buren, Nan Goldin, and others. Gilles Clément has been presenting his contribution to landscape architecture for decades in more than thirty publications and numerous lectures throughout the world. This is the first comprehensive English-language monograph on his work.

Summary:
Michel Desvigne est certainement l’architecte paysagiste français le plus marquant sur la scène internationale. Il collabore avec des architectes tels que Richard Rogers, Norman Forster, Renzo Piano, Ieoh Ming Pei, Herzog et de Meuron ou encore Jean Nouvel, et ses projets dotés d’une forte composante conceptuelle sont intimement liés à la notion de géographie. La notion de circulation joue également un grand rôle dans son travail, soulignant l’importance stratégique de l’architecture du paysage dans le domaine de l’urbanisme. Cette monographie thématique analyse les éléments clés du travail de Desvigne à travers différents chapitres consacrés au processus de transformation, à la géographie, au territoire, aux structures urbaines et aux places publiques. Ces notions sont toujours clairement illustrées par une sélection de projets, notamment le Walker Art Center à Minneapolis, le Dallas Center for the Performing Arts, le jardin du ministère de la Culture à Paris et le jardin japonais de la Keio University à Tokyo.

Summary:
Rotterdams West 8 is not only one of the largest, but also one of the best-known and most active design firms working in Europe today in the field of "urban design and landscape architecture." The phrase suggests the firms strongly interdisciplinary orientation between landscape architecture and town planning. Its projects are provocative, avant-garde in the typically Dutch manner, and not afraid of contact with popular culture. They were created in close collaboration with such architects as Richard Rogers, Steven Holl, Dominique Perrault, Rem Koolhaas, Renzo Piano, and many others. The founder and director of the firm and its most highly visible figure is Adriaan Geuze, who is the author of this book.
