This book provides one of the first comprehensive discussions of
contemporary landscape architecture practice across the Asian
region. Bringing together established designers, writers, and
thinkers with those of the new generation, Jillian Walliss and
Heike Rahmann explore emerging Asian perspectives on urbanism,
modes of engagement, design thinking, and construction in a field
that has traditionally been dominated by North American and
European influences. The Big Asian Book of Landscape Architecture
is divided into three thematic sections-Continuum, Interruption,
and Speed-as characteristics that simultaneously influence an Asian
practice of landscape architecture. Each section presents an
interweaving of theoretical writing, reflection on practice, photo
essays, and design projects to explore issues such as the shared
cultural, philosophical, and physical understandings of landscape,
the impact of modernity, and the effects of speed on Asian design
and cities. This dynamic structure allows readers to dip into
sections, rather than progress in a linear manner.
