Form and Fabric in Landscape Architecture provides an original; visual approach to the study of landscape architecture by creating a spatial morphology based on use and experience of landscapes. It explores aesthetic; spatial and experiential concepts by providing a structure through which landscapes can be understood and conceived in design. Fabric is the integrated structure of whole landscapes; while form refers to the components that make up this fabric. Together form and fabric create a morphology of landscape useful for the development of visual-spatial design thinking and awareness. This book is intended as both an introduction to the discipline for students of landscape architecture; architecture and planning; and a source of continuing interest for more experienced environmental designers.

A very good book with interesting informationBy John JonesA very good book with interesting information; but the postal people folded it in half which I hate; but seller could not help that. Agood clean copy. Thanks5 of 7 people found the following review helpful. A Masterpiece!By M. StoyanovI most say that this possible is one of the best and most inspiring books available for anyone interested in classical architecture. The Adams brothers style together with Louis XV is possibly the most modern interpretation of classical architecture. Highly recommendable and a must for anyone interested in classical architecture; beaux arts; etc.4 of 6 people found the following review helpful. The Works in Architecture of Robert and James AdamBy savannah artist16While the engravings are of a very high quality; there are very few of them. Maybe I misunderstood what the content of this book encompassed. I would not buy it again at the purchase price; maybe at half the amount.
