Summary:
The Dutch office of Strootman Landscape Architects is extensively profiled in this gorgeous monographic publication by C3. The book is divided by chapter into the themes most relevant to the practice: Garden & Park, Forest & Park, Re-use, Historico-cultural Landscapes, and Living in Water Landscapes. Tackling issues such as planning versus design, spatial solutions in an urbanised world, accommodating natural forms and systems, and the pursuit of the sublime, Strootman presents itself as formally rooted in the history of the Dutch landscape while simultaneously applying contemporary ecological and spatial strategies. Included are a variety of notable projects from both within the Netherlands and across Europe.

Summary:
Filling Up is the first of two themes presented here. The leftover spaces created by the continual development of the city are examined as vital, attractive voids to be integrated into the urban dynamic, though perhaps not always in terms of recreational functions. A text by Aldo Vanini introduces several projects, such as the Tel Aviv Port Public Space Regeneration and(...)

Summary:
Filling Up is the first of two themes presented here. The leftover spaces created by the continual development of the city are examined as vital, attractive voids to be integrated into the urban dynamic, though perhaps not always in terms of recreational functions. A text by Aldo Vanini introduces several projects, such as the Tel Aviv Port Public Space Regeneration and the Schinkel Islands Park in Amsterdam. The second theme, “Delimiting”, investigates a redefinition of the concept of the urban square in newly built towns and urban areas. With an essay by Diego Terna, the projects include Music Park in Seville and the Dover Esplanade, among several others.

Summary:
If there is a plateau that continuously unites Hans Dieter Schaal's numerous artistic fields of activity then it is surely that of landscape architecture. Landscape motifs are as convincingly present in his stage sets as they are in his installations, his exhibition architectures, his texts, and, naturally, also his park and garden designs. Schaal has been on the track of the fascination of landscapes since the 1960s with an intensive study of the early landscape gardens of Great Britain, the park complexes of the Romantics and the Enlightenment and he was subsequently able to build a large number of spectacular »follies« and installations in gardens and parks.
