Omschrijving
This book provides an in-depth overview of graphic and visual communication styles for conveying climate change and climate action within the landscape architectural profession and in academia, featuring visualizations of climate adaptation and resilience from award-winning landscape architects around the world.
“Climate Change is an existential threat to our Planet and the survival of the Human Species. Although the topic is top of mind, visual expressions solidify the need for more action from a broad audience. It is wonderful to have a book that provides illustrations to convey many ways the discipline and profession of Landscape Architecture addresses nature based design solutions towards reversing the effects of climate change.”
Kona Gray, FASLA, PLA, Principal of EDSA Inc, and 2025-26 President of ASLA
"Representation is an effective method for communicating complex issues, especially the profound challenge of Climate Change. Landscape architecture's role in visually conveying complicated concepts is pivotal for educating and creating action. It serves as a catalyst for the cultural shift required to address the global climate crisis facing everyone."
