Experiential Landscape offers new ways of looking at the relationship between people and the outdoor open spaces they use in their everyday lives. The book takes a holistic view of the relationship between humans and their environment; integrating experiential and spatial dimensions of the outdoors; and exploring the theory and application of environmental design disciplines; most notably landscape architecture and urban design. The book explores specific settings in which an experiential approach has been applied; setting out a vocabulary and methods of application; and offers new readings of experiential characteristics in site analysis and design. Offering readers a range of accessible mapping tools and details of what participative approaches mean in practice; this is a new; innovative and practical methodology.The book provides an invaluable resource for students; academics and practitioners and anyone seeking reflective but practical guidance on how to approach outdoor place-making or the analysis and design of everyday outdoor places.
