Book
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No DJ as issued. 454 pages. First and foremost, this is a book about New Zeala nd landscape architecture and urban design, viewed through the le ns of Isthmus, an award-winning design studio that for more than twenty-five years has been shaping and reshaping the way we exper ience our
land and cityscapes. It is also a story about New Zealand, about changing perspectives and attitudes
to the use of land and water, the way we organise our cities, the way we play, live, and work, and the lessons from the past that can inf luence the way we build new communities. Coast. Country. Neighbou rhood. City. presents twenty-five projects, from small playscapes that put children back at the heart of the city right through to large infrastructural works, such as the New Plymouth Coastal Wa lkway, that have transformed cities by turning them around to fac e the water. These works are set against a background of contempo rary debates about making the new New Zealand, housing and popula tion intensification, urbanisation, and landscape protection. It is hoped that this book will bring these integrated works of land scape, urban design, and architecture to a wider audience. This i s a generous, well-crafted, and beautifully photographed book tha t also explains the process of design through drawing. The twenty -five projects illustrate design ideas, the stories behind them, and the impact that these project have had on their communities. Importantly, Coast. Country. Neighbourhood. City. is the first pu blished compilation of works detailing the output of one New Zeal and design studio with a strong record of innovative landscape ar chitecture practice.
