Murphy, Michael D.

Landscape architecture theoryan ecological approach /[electronic resource] :by Michael D. Murphy. - Washington, DC :Island Press/Center for Resource Economics :2016. - xv, 315 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Foreword -- Introduction -- Part I: Substantive Theory -- 1. Substantive Theory -- 2. The Biophysical Landscape -- 3. The Human Landscape -- 4. Design Purpose -- 5. Design Form -- Part II: Procedural Theory -- 7. Design Process -- 8. Problem Definition -- 9. Design Collaboration -- 10. Design Thinking -- Appendix -- Bibliography.

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. This volume re-examines the fundamentals of the field, offering a new approach to landscape design. Drawing on his extensive career in teaching and practice, the author begins with an examination of influences on landscape architecture: social context, contemporary values, 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 real-world designs; working professionals will find stimulating insights to infuse their projects with a greater sense of purpose.
