Résumé:
Cet ouvrage vise à combler une lacune dans l'histoire de l'art des jardins et du paysagisme en France. Il analyse la démarche créatrice de Ferdinand Bac : comment réalise t-il, sur la Côte d'Azur, son projet de refondation culturelle de l'art des jardins, puisant aux sources de l'histoire et du territoire méditerranéen ? Quelle a été la postérité de son oeuvre non seulement en Europe mais encore en Amérique où l'on vit éclore des jardins "latins" et "méditerranéens" durant l'entre-deux-guerres ? Enfin, dans sa quête des constantes issues de la terre méditerranéenne, peut-il avoir des disciples aujourd'hui parmi les paysagistes ?

Résumé:
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.

"A Landscape Inventory" is a manifesto on landscape experimentation, the work of the internationally renowned architect, Michel Desvigne. As an “anti-monograph,” this publication is not comprehensive and projects are not discussed in depth. Instead, it features a composite view of elements such as tree pattern and density across scales, from diminutive urban courtyard to territory, to reveal the weight of planting and material choices in shaping landscapes, irrespective of design language.

Résumé:
Depuis vingt ans, l’Atelier Le Balto dessine et réalise des parcs et des jardins oscillant aux frontières de l’art et du paysage. « Escales » propose de s’attarder sur certains d’entre eux, à Paris, Berlin ou Göteborg. 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.

Résumé:
Fondé en 2000, l’atelier de Julien Descombes et Marco Rampini s’est distingué sur la scène architecturale par son large éventail d’intérêts, du territoire à l’urbanisme, de l’architecture aux ouvrages d’art. 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.

Résumé:
This monograph explores the design philosophy of the three partners of Surfacedesign, who are committed to solutions that emerge from the site itself and challenge conventional approaches to landscape. The work is informed by the vast openness and frontier spirit of the West, expressed in rugged materials and sustainable planting. Surfacedesign focuses on cultivating a sense of connection to the built and natural world, pushing people to engage with the landscape in new ways. The design approach emphasizes and celebrates the unique context and imaginative potential of each project. The studio's process is rooted in asking novel questions and listening to a site and its users, a process that has led to engaging and inspiring landscapes that are rugged, contemporary, and crafted.
