"Designed Landscapes: 37 Key Projects, is a beautiful and fascinating volume, and a pleasure to read. The book is a profusely illustrated exploration of a series of outstanding landscapes, all designed by human hand. Beyond providing a multi-dimensional and in-depth study of a broad spectrum of outstanding man-made landscapes, the book promotes understanding and preservation of designed landscapes generally, and inspires designers to achieve a high quality of work in their own projects."Ron Williams, CSLA, RAIC, landscape architect, review for Canadian Architecture"As an overview of a wide range of landscape designs and their settings, Designed Landscapes: 37 Projects would serve admirably as a textbook for students of landscape architecture or as a desk reference for more experienced practitioners of landscape architecture, urban design, or city planning. The book goes well beyond the typical introductions found in surveys of landscape architecture history. Aside from showcasing particular design aesthetics and stylistic periods while addressing the peculiarities of site, climate, or culture, it offers insights into each design's unique solutions to specific design problems."S. Scott Shannon, Professor Emeritus at SUNY-ESF, review for Landscape Journal"Organized in a dozen categories such as enclosed spaces, private parkland, and campuses, Designed Landscapes is an ambitious volume...Each case study presents an exhaustive history and design analysis and is accompanied by annotated drawings and photographs."Review in Landscape Architecture Magazine
