"The gardens has always been a paradise and a place of refuge, an expression of the relationship between humans and nature, a reflection of identities, dreams, and visions. Today, however, the garden is much more than a romantic retreat - it is also a place where concepts of social justice and a sustainable future can be tried and tested. Garden futures : designing with nature explores the history and future of gardens in sumptuous photo-essays, in-depth articles, and numerious interviews. In the face of climate crisis, globalization, and food insecurity, garden makers like Mien Ruys and Piet Oudolf, Roberto Burle Marx and the Malaysian Kebun-Kebun Bangsar collective, and writers like Jamaica Kincaid of Gilles Clément provide throught-provoking case studies and ideas, Combined with examples from landscape architecture, design, and art, a rich picture emerges in which the garden is a place of hope and promise"--Page 4 de la couverture.
