Résumé:
Landmark is a defining survey of contemporary landscape photography. It features more than 230 images by over 100 leading photographers of today, all of whom present an individual viewpoint about a shared concern for our changing landscape and environment. The book is organized around ten themes and includes work by such distinguished practitioners as Edward Burtynsky, Stephane Couturier, Mitch Epstein and Sally Mann. From restful, bucolic images capturing the last vestiges of nature, through shocking depictions of a sullied Earth, scarred and abused, to surreal and artificial landscapes where the natural landscape is a highly controlled one, the book provides a thought-provoking meditation on the meaning of landscape in today's world.

Résumé:
Cornelia Hahn Oberlander, who has been a landscape architect for more than sixty years, considers her profession “the art of the possible.” The description also applies to the very way this remarkable 86-year-old has lived her life. Playing in her grandmother’s garden as a child, Cornelia absorbed the beauty and importance of the natural world and by the age of eleven had decided that she would become a landscape architect. Leaving her native Germany in the wake of Hitler’s persecution of the Jews, the teenaged Cornelia was transplanted in America, where she could pursue her dream in safety, although not without having to struggle to carve out a place for herself in the male-dominated world of her chosen profession. This 96-page biography tells her remarkable life’s story, complete with photographs and plans for the imaginative playgrounds and the innovative museum and embassy grounds she has created around the world, and for green rooftops, her latest passion. Young readers will not only learn about the profession, but also will find inspiration in Cornelia Hahn Oberlander’s love for the natural world and the respect and concern she shows for our increasingly fragile environment. Kathy Stinson was born in Toronto. She was a mail sorter, elementary school teacher, and a waitress before she turned her hand to writing. It was a wise decision. She wrote Red Is Best and Big Or Little. Since then, she has had over thirty titles published for a wide range of audiences. Kathy Stinson has two grown-up children, two grown-up stepchildren, and five grandchildren. She lives with her partner, Peter Carver, near Rockwood, Ontario.

Résumé:
Herzog & de Meuron rank among the most important contemporary international architects. Their latest commission for the new Tate Gallery in London has now brought this fact home to the public at large, as have the large exhibitions in Tokyo, New York and Paris. The complete edition from Birkhäuser accords due recognition and presents the works in their entirety. Following Volume 2 published last year, Volume 1 now documents the first eleven years of Herzog & de Meuron's work. Between the years 1978 and 1988, the architects developed a methodological basis upon which the large projects of the following years could be based. Whereas buildings such as the "blue house" near Basel were marked by a nature-related imagery, Herzog & de Meuron came forward almost simultaneously with designs so condensed that the expression, function and structure formed a whole. The storage building for Ricola in Laufen is a perfect example with its shell of layered eternit boards. Another central theme of the first decade of their work called for taking a fresh look at building materials. A house in a garden near Basel was joined together with completely different types of plywood on the inside and outside; the outside walls of an apartment building in Tavole (Liguria) were layered with rough stone; a glass shell was planned for a laboratory in Basel, partly detached from the building volume; an apartment house with a gallery is enlivened by the versatile use of concrete. Already the early works demonstrate an intense interest in the design of the facade. Their Pilotengasse development at Vienna's city limits was the first project to grapple with far-reaching urban planning considerations. It was designed and completed between 1987 and 1992 in cooperation with Adolf Krischanitz and Otto Steidle. In our rapidly changing times, a pragmatic way of thinking about a specific location and purpose distinguishes the architectural discourse of Herzog & de Meuron in a special way. Various theoretical contributions in the book elaborate on this pragmatism. Volume 1, as Volume 2, presents the central projects in detail. The addendum includes a chronology of all 47 numbered works from 1978 to 1988 with precise technical and bibliographical information.

Résumé:
The heem parks (parks that predominately feature native wild plants) De Braak, the K. Landwehrpark and, especially, the Jac.P. Thijsse Park in Amstelveen in the Netherlands, have been important sources of inspiration for landscape architects, gardeners, and nature lovers throughout the world since they were first laid out over fifty years ago. This new book looks at the extraordinary history of these parks and the work of the landscape architect Christiaan Broerse and his colleague, the botanist Koos Landwehr. It also details Broerse and Landwehr’s creative and highly original use of a great variety of native plants in these parks. Bekkers analyses the parks as integral elements of Amsterdam’s urban expansion plans and demonstrates how successfully Broerse and Landwehr resolved the tension between the conservation movement and city planners. He shows too how interest in the Amstelveen heem parks have grown over time. These parks have played a key role, for instance, in the increasing emphasis on the use of native plants in the layout of green areas. The book is richly illustrated, with specially commissioned full-colour photographs by Jan Derwig and aerial photographs by Jan Schot. Also included are historical illustrations and sketches.
