Radical Landscapes: Reinventing Outdo by Jane Amidon
"Radical Landscapes" presents over 60 projects by forward-looking landscape designers. Their use of innovative materials, unusual plants and unexpected forms offers alternative solutions to garden, backyard or outdoor space design. The book is organized into seven themes: light and colour, movement, order and objects, interaction, new contexts, urban interventions, and narrative. Each chapter is illustrated with works by designers and architects such as Fernando Garuncho, Kathryn Gustafson, Hiroki Hasegawa, Walter Hood and Adriaan Geuze.
'A compelling and beautifully written discussion on contemporary landscape design' - Gardens Illustrated 'One of the most vigorous and accessible accounts of contemporary landscape movements I have read' - The Financial Times 'A book to turn to when inspiration is running dry' - Landscape Design
Jane Amidon holds a master's degree in landscape architecture from Harvard's Graduate School of Design. She worked closely with Dan Kiley, America's master landscape architect, for over five years and co-authored Dan Kiley in His Own Words.
