Summary:
How can buildings be integrated into the landscape? How is architecture conceivable in flood-prone areas or parched landscapes? The title ‘Traces’ addresses these and other questions. It thematises how ‘reading’, observing and recording space and landscape determine an architectural design in different landscape contexts. It provides insights into an approach to architectural design. Using selected works created at the Chair of Design and Creation under the direction of Prof. Uta Graff at TUM Munich, certain aspects take centre stage. Colour illustrations of artefacts and models, project descriptions and essays document the various issues.

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?

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.
