Organized by century and geographic region, this highly visual reference uses hundreds of masterful pen-and-ink drawings to show how historical context and cultural connections can illuminate today's design possibilities.
This guide includes:
* Storyboards, case studies, and visual narratives to portray spaces
* Plan, section, and elevation drawings of key spaces
* Summaries of design concepts, principles, and vocabularies
* Historic and contemporary works of art that illuminate a specific era
* Descriptions of how the landscape has been shaped over time in response to human need
Directing both students and practitioners along a visually stimulating timeline, Illustrated History of Landscape Design is a valuable educational tool as well as an endless source ofinspiration.
