For decades, landscape architecture was driven solely by artistic
sensibilities. But in these times of global change, the opportunity
to reshape the World comes with a responsibility to consider how it
can be resilient, fostering health and vitality for humans and
nature. Landscape Architecture Theory re-examines the fundamentals
of the field, offering a new approach to landscape design. Drawing
on his extensive career in teaching and practice, Michael Murphy
begins with an examination of influences on landscape architecture:
social context, contemporary Mamas, and the practicalities of
working as a professional landscape architect. He then delves into
systems and procedural theory, while making connections to
ecosystem factors, human factors, utility, aesthetics, and the
design process. He concludes by showing how a strong theoretical
understanding can be applied to practical, every-day decision
making and design work to create more holistic, sustainable, and
creative landscapes.Students will take away a foundational
Understanding of the underpinnings of landscape architecture
theory, as well as how it can be applied to heal-world designs;
working professionals will find stimulating insights to infuse
their projects with a greater sense of purpose.
