Description
Summary:Lawrence Halprin (1916-2009) was one of the most influential landscape architects of the 20th-century. His creative process represents an overlooked antecedent to today's approach to landscape and urban design, which emphasises infrastructural networks, ecological processes, multidisciplinary collaboration, as well as public participation. From exhaustive study of his vast archive of drawings and documents, the book critically interprets Halprin's participatory design process and argues for the applicability of aspects of that process in city-shaping today.
