The Dynamic Landscape : Design, Ecology and Management of Naturalistic Urban Planting Hardback
Edited by Nigel Dunnett, James Hitchmough
Hardback
Description
The last quarter of the twentieth century witnessed a burgeoning of interest in ecological or naturally-inspired use of vegetation in the designed landscape.
More recently, a strong aesthetic element has been added to what was formerly a movement aimed at creating nature-like landscapes.
This book advances an innovative fusion of scientific and ecological planting design philosophies which can address the need for more sustainable designed landscapes.
It is a major statement on the design, implementation and management of ecologically-inspired landscape vegetation.
With contributions from experts at the forefront of development in this area across Europe and North America, this work gives the reader a valuable synthesis of current thinking.
