A companion volume to Tuscany Artists Homes, Tuscany Artists Gardens presents thirty gardens created by contemporary artists who have settled in Tuscany, and who have applied their artistic sensitivities to their surroundings in unusual and distinctive ways. Each artist’s work reflects, even if unconsciously, a continuity with Tuscan traditions while bringing to bear their own cultural heritage and artistic vision. The gardens take many different forms, from majestic, formally designed acres punctuated with sculpture to tiny, intimate spaces that have colors of every imaginable hue. Daniel Spoerri has used the landscape as a dramatic backdrop for great new works of art scattered along a botanic trail. Niki de Saint Phalle’s extraordinary Tarot Garden houses twenty-two polychromatic sculptures representing the major arcana of the Tarot, while in Fernando Botero’s Garden for the Goddess of Fertility, monumental bronze figures loom out of the trees. Mariella Sgaravatti’s essays offer telling insights into the artists’ motivations, and explore the ways in which their work is intrinsically connected to the magical beauty of the Tuscan landscape. The descriptions and images of the gardens found in this volume are a useful and original source of inspiration for anyone working in the field.

The Emscher Landscape Park is one of the most important landscape revitalising projects that has been realised in an industrial region – eminent not only on a national but also on an international scale.

With its 450 km2, the Emscher Landscape Park encompasses a significant part of the Ruhr Metropolitan Area, the European Capital of Culture RUHR.2010.

What makes it unique is the variety of built projects and the expertise of the stakeholders involved including, among others, Peter Latz, Norman Foster, Jörg Schlaich, Frei Otto, Rem Koolhaas, Henri Bava, Françoise-Hélène Jourda, Michel Desvigne, Richard Serra and Maria Nordman.

About 30 major parks and landmarks, pits and tips, bridges and trails as well as artistic installations, all part of this comprehensive landscaping project, are presented here in essays by renowned authors and in individual project portraits.

Urban design has recently undergone a considerable transformation with a significant increase in the variety of resources employed by landscape architects and urban planners when it comes to planning public open spaces, especially when concepts such as sustainability and ecology have to be taken increasingly into account. Urban Eco Parks represents a collection of projects selected for their clear intention to show the greatest respect for Nature, places to take a “breather” or just to relax and take a pleasant stroll.

Hundreds of benches, rails, parterres, street lamps, posts, footpaths and bridges, fountains and spatial organizers ? This exhaustive volume contains all of the elements that go into the design of urban space. All elements in this volume were customdesigned for specific urban projects; and all of them are explained from the drawing board up: from the original sketches and lists of materials, to the fi nished product in its setting. This is the most thorough volume of its kind available and contains material that all urban design professionals must be familiar with.

A stone-garden fountain where children are invited to play...a striking landscape created by the "flying floors" of an airport...in the midst of the most crowded, most intense cities and buildings, open spaces provide visual and emotional relief. Twenty exciting examples of the best in urban design, each thoroughly illustrated and documented, make Urban Spaces: Plazas and Squares an invaluable resource for architects, urban planners, and students seeking out the latest trends in public space design.

* Exciting projects by top design firms from around the world
* Innovative, unusual, unexpected projects

The park of the palace of Versailles spreads out from the foot of the chateau to as far as the eye can see. In designing it, Louis XIV shared the same aim as the Medicis in Florence and Henri IV at the Louvre to manifest the ideal of rational government through the mastery of nature by intellect.

The seasons and the time of day dramatically transform the park in a matter of days, hours, or even minutes. The photographs here capture the moments when light suddenly colours the pools and basins crimson; when the Swiss Pond is transformed into a storm-tossed lake by the wind; or when, in the morning haze, phantoms emerge evocatively from the Basin of Neptune.

The author tells the story of the vision that Louis XIV, great gardener Andre le Notre, artist Hardouin-Mansart, and architect Charles Le Brun had for the gardens. Even those that know the gardens well will have the impression that they are encountering their magic for the first time in this splendid publication.
