Description
by Garrett Eckbo (Author)
Landscape For Living is a comprehensive book on landscape architecture written by Garrett Eckbo, a renowned landscape architect and one of the pioneers of modern landscape architecture. The book covers a wide range of topics related to landscape architecture, including the history of the profession, the design principles and techniques used in landscape design, and the role of landscape architecture in shaping the built environment.Eckbo's book is divided into three main sections. The first section provides an overview of the history of landscape architecture, from its origins in ancient civilizations to its development in modern times. The second section focuses on the design process, including site analysis, design concepts, and the use of different materials and plants. The third section explores the social and environmental aspects of landscape architecture, including the role of public space, the impact of landscape design on the environment, and the relationship between landscape architecture and urban planning.Throughout the book, Eckbo emphasizes the importance of creating landscapes that are both functional and beautiful. He argues that landscape architecture has the power to shape the way people interact with their environment and with each other, and that it can play a critical role in creating sustainable, livable communities.Landscape For Living is a seminal work in the field of landscape architecture and is widely considered to be a classic in the profession. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history, theory, and practice of landscape architecture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
