Peter Walker, born in 1932, is one of the most seminal and prolific
figures in contemporary landscape design - both as a teacher and as
practitioner. His career now spans six decades. Amongst his
best-known works are Nasher Sculpture Garden in Dallas, Novartis
Campus in Basel and the September 11 Memorial in New York. His
"generous landscapes" are characterized by minimalist forms; theses
spaces are classical but also entirely modern. Scott Melbourne's
review looks at this unique oeuvre in retrospective and pays close
attention to how Walker's urban squares and parks have fared over
time. He studies the main design features and provides a
comparative analysis of their effects. In the second and updated
edition of this book, foreword and bibliography were revised and a
subject index was added.
