Description
This beautifully illustrated guide celebrates some of the most significant award winning public spaces in major cities in the UK and Ireland
over the last ten years.
Dealing with a range of contemporary and innovating designed landscapes from urban spaces to public parks,
this book focuses on those that have been awarded the highest design accolade from the Royal Institute of British Architects, The Royal
Town and
Planning Institute, The Landscape Institute and The Civic Trust. Focusing on designs in ten major cities, and providing a snappy
synopsis of each of the spaces in terms of its design statement, function, location, design team and award commentary, It illustrates
to
the reader what makes 'good design' in the public realm, providing both information and inspiration.
Audience
Landscape architects, urban designs, both student and professional. Architects and town planners.
