Résumé:
The unresolved limits of the post-capitalist city give rise to interventions in the city and the contemporary landscape in which the planner has to rely on a knowledge of other fields. The inevitable multidisciplinary activity at these frontiers has been an object of study during recent decades. This book brings together these reflections and some of their achievements in projects whose common denominator is their condition of marginality, of contiguity with prior structures with which they try to establish connections and continuities. The four parts into which the book is divided make reference to projectural policies conditioned by work on the boundaries of the pre-existing and to the interpretation of their settings: stretches of water, infrastructures, cultural and artificial natures. Analysed here are border zones, edges, frontiers and fringes of the contemporary city with itself, with nature, and with the boundaries between the natural and the colonised landscape.

Résumé:
"Walkscapes" deals with strolling as an architecture of landscape, with walking as an autonomous form of art, a primary act in the symbolic transformation of the territory, an aesthetic instrument of knowledge and a physical transformation of the "negotiated" space, which is converted into an urban intervention. From primitive nomadism to Dada and Surrealism, from the Lettrist to the Situationist International, and from Minimalism to Land Art, this book narrates the perception of landscape through a history of the traversed city.

Résumé:
Following the calamitous events of 2011 in Japan, Fuminori Nousaku and Mio Tsuneyama began to look at the link between materials and energy related to daily life, such as household goods, homes, food, and waste. They sought ways to reinvent how we live, from dependence on infrastructure and industry to another relationship: off-grid homes that generate solar power, gardens that harness the power of microbes in the soil, shared homes in vacant buildings, and construction using discarded materials. The wildness that survives the city enjoys fluctuation and overcomes inconvenience. This book introduces the collectives involved in these activities along with practices and resources.

Résumé:
''The Right to Nature'' is a new chapter of reflection and work of the AG greenscape, centered on the current and renewed relationship between man and nature, and the consequent transformation of our cities through new ways of living, inhabiting, working with nature and the landscape as the protagonist, in every area, at all project scales, as a social balancer and activator of a new urban sociality. The relationship between man and nature today is an urgent issue in the debate on the contemporary city, but it still has to be truly explored, defined, and built. Throughout seven main topics – Green and blue infrastructures, Regeneration, Public space, Dwelling, Green welfare, Heritage, and Care –, the book explores contemporary urban landscape issues at the different scales of the project, in the light of the relationship between human beings and nature.

Résumé:
"Landscape + 100 words to inhabit it" is a title that intends to present a condition of contemporary landscape by measuring it through a direct and immediate form : terms, definitions, ideas, microstories, short texts, notes. It is a collection of instant snaps rather than a complete critical and theoretical look at the subject. It is a group of terms asked for and formulated by authors that are not only architects and landscape architects, but also urbanists, philosophers, critics, poets, geographers and writers. It is a collection of reflections that underlie aesthetic and cultural categories as much as technical-professional values and practices. It is a Tower of Babel of meanings, each having its specific characteristics, which, far from exhausting all the issues of a particular point, propose 'listening' to it from various multifaceted standpoints. These concepts do not guide this book towards a definition of landscape but towards a search for the most suitable instruments for dealing with it.

Résumé:
En ce début de millénaire, quel regard porter sur la production récente de l'espace public ? Loin des grands aménagements urbains, ce livre explore la question de l'invention du paysage urbain dans des petites ou moyennes communes et au travers d'opérations modestes, situées dans de grandes villes ou non. Le "paysage intime" résulte du fragile équilibre obtenu par une évolution lente de la matière bâtie et non bâtie, en fonction des techniques, des particularités culturelles, des usages et du climat de chaque région. Or, force est de constater que, souvent, la production courante de l'aménagement urbain et le traitement infligé aux espaces publics manquent d'attention et de pertinence. L'objet de cet ouvrage est de montrer qu'il est pourtant possible de faire évoluer le cadre urbain avec intelligence et sensibilité tout en évitant les pièges d'un conservatisme frileux ou d'un "modernisme" tapageur. Vingt opérations ont été choisies pour leur qualité de conception et de réalisation, leur caractère innovant ou simplement pour la justesse de leur réponse. Elles prennent en compte les particularités des sites dans lesquels elles s'inscrivent ainsi que les demandes en termes d'usage et de fonctionnalité, pour créer des paysages "à valeur ajoutée", loin des solutions toutes faites qui banalisent et dénaturent généralement les paysages urbains. Ce recueil de projets remarquables par leur qualité devrait contribuer à relever le niveau d'exigence dans la réalisation des espaces publics et à encourager les initiatives ambitieuses.
