Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Form and Fabric in Landscape Architecture provides an original, visual approach to the study of landscape architecture by creating a spatial morphology based on the use and experience of landscapes. It explores aesthetic, spatial, and experiential concepts by providing a structure through which landscapes can be understood and conceived in design.

'Fabric' is the integrated structure of whole landscapes, while 'form' refers to the components that make up this fabric. Together, form and fabric create a morphology of landscape useful for the development of visual-spatial design thinking and awareness.

This book is intended as both an introduction to the discipline for students of landscape architecture, architecture, and planning, and a source of continuing interest for more experienced environmental designers.
