Book excerpt: Not far from Le Corbusier's famed Villa Savoye lies Poissy Galore: a visionary project that brings together architecture, education and leisure within a phenomenal arena of natural beauty along the Seine in Carri?res-sous-Poissy. Designed collaboratively by French architects AWP and Swiss HHF with landscape design by Agence TER, this inspiring cluster of pavilions, public infrastructures, exhibition spaces and event halls fans out across 113 acres of green space, offering Parisians a restorative retreat away from the city and a green haven for locals alike. This elegant booklet publication celebrates the grand debut of Poissy Galore in the autumn of 2016. With stunning landscapes captured by Julien Lanoo and acclaimed architectural photographer Iwan Baar, the sublime aura of Poissy's natural beauty is artfully explored throughout the 80-page publication. Interviews with the principals of AWP and HHF expound upon the design concept, which features a hybridisation of natural and built landscapes that characterise the site of the project. Critical essays by leading voices in contemporary art and culture provide an interdisciplinary context for Poissy Galore that underscores the project's rich contribution to topics of ecology, environmentalism and the Anthropocene. In addition to public infrastructure such as the museum, which houses insects both living and conserved, the project features non-public areas including sites purposed for cultivating different kind of insects, so as to develop a self-sustaining exhibition of local ecologies. The built landscape offers an exciting spectrum of material engagement, including an observatory made of steel and a modular wood system from which spring the ?follies both low-cost and organic, the variety of scale and design delights the eye as well as enabling the integration of local builders and suppliers.

Download or read book 100 20th Century Gardens and Landscapes written by Twentieth Century Society and published by Batsford Books. This book was released on 2020-04-01 with total page 661 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A showcase of Britain's most extraordinary gardens and landscapes from the twentieth century to present day. 100 20th-Century Gardens and Landscapes highlights the evolution of gardens and landscapes over the past century, tracing how these distinctive creations complemented buildings of their period. Entries in this book are grouped in chronological periods, documenting changing styles and techniques in a visual timeline. The examples chosen take the story from the Arts and Crafts garden and the garden city, through the landscapes created for mid-century housing and the new towns, to the low-maintenance gardens of the 1980s and contemporary trends for community and wildlife gardens. Designed landscapes were often integral to the conception of twentieth-century developments; the inclusion of a handful of particularly successful landscapes for memorial gardens, offices, industry, transport and parks demonstrate a changing attitude to public green space during the century and its increasing importance as private gardens have become ever smaller. Designers and architects such as Piet Oudolf, Charles Jencks, Frederick Gibberd, Geoffrey Jellicoe, Vita Sackville-West and Gertrude Jekyll are all featured, alongside more detailed essays on the history of gardens, planting styles, the importance of modern landscapes, and the career of Geoffrey Jellicoe. The text is written by architectural, landscape and garden historians including Elain Harwood, Barbara Simms and Alan Powers. Beautifully illustrated throughout with photography, illustrations and garden plans, this book is ideal for gardeners and landscape lovers alike.
