Summary:
Depuis qu'elle existe, l'humanité s'évertue à aménager le Monde, le réaménager, le diviser, le parcourir, le mettre en production et donc en valeur. Elle modifie sans cesse son habitat, produit tous les jours de l'espace, de la différence et de l'organisation - avec art et réussite souvent, mais non sans dégâts et perturbations dus à l'ignorance, aux erreurs, aux conflits, à l'avidité. À partir de questions simples et fondamentales, "qu'y a-t-il là, pourquoi est-ce là comme ça, et où cela va-t-il ?", le géographe scrute et déchiffre les traces et les signes que livrent les paysages, la distribution des activités et des habitats, des cultures et des comportements, même les noms des lieux et les antimondes.

Mapping has been one of the most fertile areas of exploration for architecture and landscape in the past few decades. While documenting this shift in representation from the material and physical description toward the depiction of the unseen and often immaterial, ''Cartographic Grounds'' takes a critical view toward the current use of data mapping and visualization and calls for a return to traditional cartographic techniques to reimagine the manifestation and manipulation of the ground itself.

Summary:
The sensing, processing, and visualizing that are currently in development within the environment boldly change the ways design and maintenance of landscapes are perceived and conceptualised. This is the first book to rationalize interactive architecture and responsive technologies through the lens of contemporary landscape architectural theory. 'Responsive Landscapes' frames a comprehensive view of design projects using responsive technologies and their relationship to landscape and environmental space. Divided into six insightful sections, the book frames the projects through the terms; elucidate, compress, displace, connect, ambient, and modify to present and construct a pragmatic framework in which to approach the integration of responsive technologies into landscape architecture.

'Austere Gardens' suggests another way to look at the landscape, the garden, and perhaps the entire world around us. It suggests that being open to other ways of observing and sensing can yield new insights and rewards, and that interest is found in places unassuming and overlooked as well as those complex and assertive.

'Austere Gardens' suggests another way to look at the landscape, the garden, and perhaps the entire world around us. It suggests that being open to other ways of observing and sensing can yield new insights and rewards, and that interest is found in places unassuming and overlooked as well as those complex and assertive. Perceiving is only one half the story, however. Realizing places using simple acts and reduced means is the other half.
