Landscape Architecture Criticism offers techniques, perspectives
and theories which relate to landscape architecture, a field very
different from the more well-known domains of art and architectural
criticism. Throughout the book, Bowring delves into questions such
as, how do we know if built or unbuilt works of landscape
architecture are successful? What strategies are used to measure
the success or failure, and by whom? Does design criticism only
come in written form? It brings together diverse perspectives on
criticism in landscape architecture, establishing a substantial
point of reference for approaching design critique, exploring how
criticism developed within the discipline. Beginning with an
introductory overview to set the framework, the book then moves on
to historical perspectives, the purpose of critique, theoretical
positions ranging from aesthetics, to politics and experience,
unbuilt projects, techniques, and communication. Written for
professionals and academics, as well as for students and
instructors in landscape architecture, it includes strategies,
diagrams, matrices, and full colour illustrations to prompt
discussion and provide a basis for exploring design critique.
