Krátky popis
A celebration of parks and public gardens by renowned landscape
architecture firm Nelson Byrd Woltz, whose designs reflect the
histories that are held in the landNelson Byrd Woltz (NBW) is one
of the most in-demand and respected firms working in landscape
architecture today with major commissions across the United States.
This collection of twelve projects illustrates the power of design
to create vital public realms at the heart of communities. Through
the celebrated firm’s process, ecological and cultural histories
are revealed and integrated into meaningful public
experiences.&,nbsp,The firm has worked with exceptionally
sensitive sites across the United States, including those that hold
the vital histories of enslaved peoples, the rich cultures of
indigenous peoples, and the natural habitats that have been
threatened by infrastructure and construction.&,nbsp,These
projects are found across the firm’s geographic reach.One, in
southern Texas, is the revitalization of Memorial Park in Houston,
a 1500-acre landscape that interweaves city infrastructure with a
vibrant ecology. In the northeast, a burial ground adjacent to the
Brooklyn Naval Yard has been reclaimed as a contemplative meadow
filled with native plants, pollinators, and birds. And thousands of
miles to the northwest, the Aga Khan Garden in Alberta, Canada,
stands as a regenerative sanctuary in opposition to the surrounding
landscape often battered by the pollutants, mining, and
fire.&,nbsp,The work of NBW is set in a broad context through
the book’s inclusion of authoritative essays by noted scholars,
ecologists, and cultural historians.It articulates the central role
of landscape architecture in reshaping public space to meet
challenges of ecological and social resilience.
