The urgency of global climate change has made the early twenty-first century one of the most productive periods in landscape and garden design. Clients corporate, civic, and private are committed to the creation of innovative outdoor spaces. Curated by one of the world s leading critics of contemporary landscape design, this collection profiles work by fifty design studios through texts, up-to-date projects, easy-to-read plans, and photographs. The practices have been chosen for their innovation and their unique contribution to current debates in landscape and garden design. The selection spans well-established names, such as Patrick Blanc (France), Fernando Caruncho (Spain), Dan Pearson (UK), and Stephen Stimson (US) to smaller, lesser-known studios, such as Ossart & Maurie res (France), Wette und Kunecke (Germany), and Landscape India (India). Five essays identify and explain the prevailing preoccupations and practices of today s designers with themes that range from the recent predilection for creating new landforms to the trend towards eco-expediency. |

Tim Richardson makes images acutely attuned to their time — a fusion of classical and futurist motifs filtered through technology. Spiritual Machine reveals the entire breadth and scope of his diverse career and includes pictures for V Magazine, Dazed & Confused, and Vogue Hommes Japan; portraiture of Brooke Candy, Rinko Kikuchi, Tao Okamoto and collaborations with the award-winning fashion director Nicola Formichetti. Richardson's exhibited work is also featured, including installations for the Venice Dance Biennale and OneDotZero. Award-winning art directors Baron & Baron have designed the book, which is ingeniously arranged in chromatic order. Richardson's photographs and film stills move far beyond the camera, exploring the figure through motion capture, scanning and 3D imaging. The results are mesmerising, otherworldly, dreamlike images that radiate with colour and movement. An exciting compendium of work from a highly original photographer, this book will inspire anyone interested in fashion, photography, film and design. |

Garden and landscape designers are adept at interpreting outdoor spaces and transforming them into creatively conceived environments. Their ideas rarely come spontaneously: rather, the thoughtful designer considers a space from different perspectives or for several seasons, working out spacing, planting, materials, and color schemes in detailed preparatory sketchbooks. For this unique publication, Tim Richardson, Director of the acclaimed Chelsea Fringe gardening festival in London, has selected thirty-seven talented landscape designers who are notable for the immense energy and creativity of their preparatory work. The best samples from their personal sketchbooks are presented alphabetically, along with concise profiles on their training, inspirations, and process. From clear perspective drawings to more abstract, experimental compositions, and quick freehand squiggles on napkins to measured topographical mapping, many of which are works of art in their own right, Landscape and Garden Design Sketchbooks is an insightful, practical guide that allows a peek into the world of leading landscape designers. |
