Down to Earth
A dazzling collection of extraordinary Australian landscapes from renowned photographer Richard Woldendorp, accompanied by a substantial essay from Tim Winton, examining his own personal responses to the land. Landscape is a personal passion of mine, perhaps even an obsession. I travel silly distances, undergo myriad discomforts to be out in it, to revisit country I'm intimate with, encounter places and landforms I'm a stranger to. I seek out images of landscape in art and literature, feel it drawing me with a force I can't always explain, but it's an itch I scratch without ever having to feel particularly lonely because it seems that many Australian's share a similar preoccupation- Tim Winton

Australia is a country of diverse landscapes that seem endless. The flat plains of the outback give way to undulating mountain ranges, serpentine rivers and rugged coastlines. Through striking photographs Out of the Blue explores Australia's natural history and how the continent evolved. From the weathering winds of time to human design, the stunning patterns, colours and vibrancy of the land come to life in Woldendorp's amazing aerial photographs.
Convivial Urban Spaces
Despite developments in urban design during the last few decades, architects, urban planners and designers often continue to produce areas of bland, commercially led urban fabric that deliver the basic functional requirements of shelter, work and leisure but are socially unsustainable and likely generators of future problems. Convivial Urban Spaces demonstrates that successful urban public spaces are an essential part of a sustainable built environment. Without them we are likely to drift into an increasingly private and polarized society, with all the problems that would imply. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this book draws on research, and the literature and theory of environmental psychology and urban design, to advance our understanding of what makes effective public spaces. Practical guidance is illustrated with case studies from the UK, Spain, Germany and Italy. The result is a practical and clearly presented guide to urban public space for planners, architects and students of the urban environment.
