innovation as a critical component in the forward development of a
contemporary profession that merges expansive ideas and
applications. The editors bring together leading contributors who
are experts in new and pioneering approaches and technologies
within the fields of academic and professional landscape
architecture. The chapters explore digital technology, design
processes and theoretical queries that shape the contemporary
practice of landscape architecture. Topics covered include: Digital

Visualization of data System theory Concluding the book are case
studies looking at the work of two landscape firms (PEG and MYKD)
and two academic departments (Illinois Institute of Technology and
the Rhode Island School of Design), which together show the novel
and exciting directions that landscape is already going in.
