Download or read book Transforming Landscapes written by Françoise Fromonot and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2020-02-24 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michel Desvigne is the most renowned French landscape architect in the world. Based in Paris, he has held guest professorships at such distinguished institutions as the Architectural Association in London and Harvard University. Desvigne’s projects have a strong strategic and conceptual component. Urban infrastructure projects play a major role, and emphasize the urban planning and design expertise evident in his landscape architecture. The book documents ten of Devigne’s major projects from France, the US, Spain and Qatar, in which he is responsible not only for the landscape architecture, but for coordination of the entire project. How can such highly complex projects be realized? What does the intellectual thought process look like? What specific problems arise in their realization?
Download or read book Conceptual Landscapes written by Simon M. Bussiere and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-15 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conceptual Landscapes explores the dilemma faced in the early moments of design thinking through a gradient of work in landscape and environmental design media by both emerging and well-established designers and educators of landscape architecture. It questions where and, more importantly, how the process of design starts. The book deconstructs the steps of conceptualizing design in order to reignite pedagogical discussions about timing and design fundamentals, and to reveal how the spark of an idea happens – from a range of unique perspectives. Through a careful arrangement of visual essays that integrate analog, digital, and mixed-media works and processes, the book highlights differences between diverse techniques and triggers debate between design, representation, technology, and creative culture in the field. Taken together, the book’s visual investigation of the conceptual design process serves as a learning tool for aspiring designers and seasoned professionals alike. By situating student work alongside that of experienced teachers and landscape architects, the book also demystifies outdated notions of individual genius and sheds new light on the nearly universally messy process of discovery, bridged across years and diverse creative vocabularies in the conceptual design process. Lavishly illustrated with over 210 full color images, this book is a must-read for students and instructors in landscape architecture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the book is to illustrate the different ways of understanding landscape, creating a dictionary that can convey not just the scope of the designing processes and their related actors, but to provide a first key for interpreting the various approaches to this discipline that has given rise to an entirely new dimension in designing the cityscape, turning the open space of the city into a space for art and sculpture, fpr garden and architecture, and into a new field for cultural activity. It documents the surprising extent of the planning experience and profiles world-renowned architects, engineers, landscape architects, artists and photographers. It aslo provides the reader with a key interpretation of the different approaches to an experience that has introduced a new dimension in the physical transformation of our environment. The dictionary features leading figures from the international scen, including Tadao Ando, Emilio Ambasz, Daniel Buren, Tony Cragg, Walter de Maria, Michael Heizer, Nancy Holt, Toyo Ito, Anish Kapoor, Rem Koolhaas, Maya Lin, Richard Long and James Turrell, to name a few. Over the last decade the concept of ''landscape'' has dramatically changed. References to the discipline of landscape architecture can be found in urban planning, in projects that reconstruct large disused areas, in the design of public spaces, parks and private gardens, in Land Art and in photography. This field has come to greater prominence with the increase in public projects and by keeping pace with new theoretical approaches and design practices. This volume will be an invaluable reference for anyone involved in urban planning, public art, landscape architecture and landscape design.
Download or read book The Paris Residences of James Joyce written by Martina Nicolls and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-26 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a narrative and photographic journey of the hotels and apartments where James Joyce lived for twenty years in 1920s and 1930s Paris. In June 1920, at the age of 38, the Irish author sought a city where he could finish Ulysses—one of the finest literary works in history. He arrived in Paris on the recommendation of Ezra Pound on 8 July and stayed for 20 years. With Nora, fifteen-year-old Giorgio and thirteen-year-old Lucia, he moved in and out of 18 residences in five arrondissements in Paris. Which arrondissements did he prefer? Which residence was the first place with the luxury of a telephone? Who did he entertain, and where was he most productive and creative? This book is both a guide for the armchair wanderer and a roadmap for Joyce aficionados in Paris. It provides new insights into Joyce’s life in Paris, based around the changing locations, styles, and sizes of his residences, depending upon the fluctuations of his finances. This book is a rich collection of information about each residence with an historical account of the duration, cost, lifestyle, and cultural atmosphere amid the significance of the social times.
