Landscapes are forged by many forces and are dynamic, not static.
Yet most landscape designs are designed as static; that is, they
are designed not to change substantially for 20-50 years. As cities
become the dominant living space for humans, allowing non-human
forces to contribute to our designs as landscape architects will
make for more resilient landscapes and a healthier planet. Making
these dynamic landscapes with our non-human partners will require a
new landscape aesthetic, changing the public perception of
"landscape," and changing maintenance practices. Dynamic
Geographies seeks to address these perceptions with a series of our
projects as examples. The book is divided into three segments of
overlapping geographies: Invisible geographies, Layered
geographies, and Unleashing geographies.
