Des jardins disparus, d’autres qui ne cessent de s’inventer, ou encore des expérimentations à grande échelle. D’escale en escale, le lecteur est amené à découvrir la démarche de l’atelier par des chemins de traverse évoquant tour à tour le dessin, les hivers, les débordements, les savoir-faire. L’ouvrage se propose de témoigner d’une manière d’être paysagiste. En donnant toute sa place aux processus mis en oeuvre dans chacun des projets, en faisant la part belle à l’audace des plantes, « Escales » atteste également de cette belle aventure humaine qu’est la création d’un jardin.

Il s’intéresse en particulier aux aménagements paysagers et urbains. En témoignent plusieurs projets de haute qualité : la Turbinenplatz (2000-2003), à Zurich, étonne l’observateur par le contraste entre les aménagements « minimalistes » et le spectacle féerique offert par son éclairage artificiel ; la place Simon Goulart recrée une ambiance festive et conviviale au centre de Genève ; entamé en 2001, le projet de la renaturation sur quatre kilomètres de l’Aire, un cours d’eau canalisé au XXe siècle, se matérialise peu à peu, offrant un nouvel espace de promenade au promeneur contemplatif. La production de l’atelier, territoriale, urbaine et architecturale, s’étend hors des frontières helvétiques, par l’aménagement des rives de la Saône à Lyon-Confluence ou le dessin du Jardin d’Eole à Paris.

Summary:
Le paysage constitue une perspective nouvelle pour la pensée de la ville, dans un contexte qui n'est plus celui de la ville historique mais bien plutôt celui de l'urbanisation générale du monde. Plus encore, le souci du paysage tient aujourd'hui une place décisive dans les préoccupations pour la qualité des cadres de vie offerts aux populations, en relation avec les interrogations sur l'identité des lieux, sur la gouvernance des territoires, ou encore sur la protection des environnements naturels. De façon convergente, on observe qu'un véritable champ de recherche s'est organisé autour de la question du paysage, où se croisent plusieurs disciplines (sciences sociales, histoire et théorie des arts et de la littérature, philosophie, écologie, géographie, architecture et urbanisme, agronomie). Une nouvelle culture du paysage prend son essor, qui correspond sans doute à de nouvelles formes d'expérience de l'espace, de la société et de la nature, et en tout cas à de nouvelles aspirations collectives concernant l'environnement. Mais cette convergence entre le développement de la recherche et un contexte social et politique devenu plus attentif aux enjeux paysagers fait apparaître des horizons inédits, aussi bien pour les pratiques professionnelles des aménageurs et des paysagistes que pour les théories paysagères.

Summary:
Hargreaves Associates has been at the forefront of landscape architectural practice since its founding in 1983, creating a narrative approach to landscape architecture that layers history, ecology, and environmental phenomena. Whether reductive or rich, highly programmed or passive, culturally interpretive or teeming with the phenomena of nature’s own systems, the built landscapes of Hargreaves Associates emphasize the power of connection to day-to-day life. This volume presents projects from throughout the 25-year history of the firm and highlights the firm's role in advancing the reoccupation of postindustrial sites, including the reclamation of waterfronts within the United States, Europe, and Australia. Featuring color photographs and illustrations throughout, the book also shows how the firm works with cultural landscapes, urban parks, smaller plazas, and gardens. Included are details on Hargreaves' innovative entries in recent landscape architectural competitions, including its stunning design of a 270-acre Victorian-style pleasure garden for the 2012 London Olympics.

Summary:
From high-rise to desert, urban sprawl to empty canyons, the American landscape is incredibly various : how does one even begin to take stock of its endlessly proliferating cityscapes and vast horizons? Reading the American Landscape rises marvelously to the challenge. For this anthropological epic, 25 landscape architects, urban designers, visual artists, photographers and commentators on the American landscape were invited by The Netherlands Foundation for Visual Arts, Design and Architecture to undertake a journey through the United States, to study and record its history and development. Their study revolved around three themes or types of location : the city park as a social space in densely developed cities; landscapes on the periphery of expanding cities; and the development of large-scale rural areas as exercises in conservation. The writers for this project were each given a bibliography, from which they selected a single title as a starting point for their essays, on subjects ranging from parks and gardens to more general speculations on the unique features of the American landscape.
