On Site
'On Site' presents projects and strategies in landscape architecture from Berlin to Bordeaux. The projects are supplemented by essays on European cartography, the cultural landscape, the history of ideas in landscape architecture, the role of ideal landscapes, urban policies, and the pioneers from Portugal.
Fieldwork
Fieldwork presents 42 groundbreaking landscape architecture projects that exhibit a profound sensitivity to materials and a respect for local customs. This definitive work on the state of contemporary European landscape architecture features seven essays on European cartography, the cultivated landscape, the history of landscape architecture, and the development of suburbia. The projects and texts have been selected by an independent jury of practicing landscape architects from various European countries and edited by a team of experts in the field.
In Touch
In Touch' presents the finest European landscape architecture. An independent international committee of leading landscape architects selected more than forty projects out of the 500 submissions. Eleven projects receive special attention in a lavishly illustrated plan analysis. Trends and developments in the field are being examined thoroughly in the essays. Issues that are dealt with are for instance the interaction with nature, the growing importance of design research, the search for the correct form language, and the roots of design traditions in Switzerland and Catalonia.

European Landscape Architecture
With projects studied here that have won international and national acclaim, this book examines case studies from all over Europe and explores the relationship between the overall landscape architectural idea for a site and the design of details.
Changes in Scenery
"Landscape architecture's potential does not lie in a unified profession, but in polarization." This key idea of author Thies Schröder is reflected in the diverse approaches of the 14 offices whose work we now present in updated portraits of improved quality. Reactions to Changes in Scenery: "Thies Schröder's book shows us that we are at a very specific moment of change and exchange in the history of European landschape architecture." Christophe Girot, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology "...altogether a refreshing read ... it is to be hoped that it will find an audience outside landscape architecture circles." TOPOS "For all who are curious to see landscapes as art and for all who are looking for inspiration." The Single Family Home "These are no longer gardens as we have hitherto known them." FAZ
New Landscape Design
In addition, the book provides the reader with insight into many of the other concerns facing landscape architects, such as the image and the function of urban spaces, ecological survival, sustainability, native people and their settlements, environmental education and the role and nature of human settlement. * Detailed technical information presented in accessible format with full color illustrations * Careful examination of past designs provides unique resource for landscape architects to learn and improve their own work * Clear focus on modern examples helps architects meet uniquely modern challenges such as urban sprawl and environmental concerns
Landscape Architecture Documentation Standards
SUPERB EXECUTION RELIES UPON RIGOROUS PROJECT DOCUMENTATION A project will only be built as well as it is documented. This publication focuses on the key documentation needs of the landscape architectural design and construction documentation process. That includes both "design documentation" and "construction documentation" as well as all that which occurs in the transition from one phase to the other. Documentation requirements include those components necessary to explore and define design intent, logic, physical proposals, and ultimately, the specific components included within construction and bid documents. Discover how proper documentation facilitates every stage of the design process...
Care/create/act
The fifth edition in the 'Landscape Architecture Europe' series presents 48 contemporary projects that explore the resources, opportunities, and challenges facing the landscape architecture profession in the design, construction, and management of our environment, from city centres to remote places. These are groundbreaking projects, some for their innovative approaches to sustainability, others for their political stance on concepts such as nature and democracy. The book is organised in three approaches to 21st-century challenges: caring for people, places, and what already exists; creating new kinds of urban landscapes; and acting to motivate progress.
