Landscape architecture involves a challenging assimilation of competencies and knowledge in many disciplines including ecology and botany, as well as techniques, materials, the social sciences, artistic expression and creativity, and their practical application. This book showcases the works of renowned contemporary French landscape architects, currently among the most talented in their field, and their skill and capacity in synthesising the most simple, ecological and sustainable materials and techniques to transform sites and bring the projects to realisation. Illustrated lavishly with full-colour photographs and accompanied by an insightful analysis of the projects, this volume is an invaluable and accessible reference not only for landscape architects and their clients, but the interested layman.
