Farmscape: The Design of Productive Landscapes situates agriculture
as a design practice, using a wide range of international case
studies and analytical essays to propose lessons for contemporary
landscape architects who are interested in integrating agriculture
into their designs. Agricultural processes, technologies, and
cycles have long shaped landscape architectural projects, from the
ornamented farm of the eighteenth century, to contemporary projects
that integrate agriculture and ecological restoration. The book
describes the history of agriculture within landscape architecture
and reveals the diversity of current design practices that use the
rhythms and forms of agriculture to create productive farms that
are also sites of beauty, community, ecological conservation,
remediation, and pleasure. Highly illustrated in full colour, this
book provides essential context, resources, and best practice
examples of rural and periurban designed sites for professionals
and students alike.
