ISBN: 9780500516119.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspiring and joyful designs from France, Morocco, Italy, Greece, and Spain: an essential companion for anyone interested in landscape design, gardens, and art.\nHuman beings have been transforming Mediterranean landscapes into art for at least 30,000 years. Millennia of human negotiations with the land prove that to “tread lightly” on the earth need not be at odds with our interface with nature.\nToday’s landscape architects, designers, land artists, sculptors, and gardeners are taking inspiration from age-old materials, skills, and sites to produce landscape designs and art that celebrate living in this multifaceted region. All involve a strongly graphic vision of the landscape; are site-generated; and observe the logic of place as determined by climate, geology, flora and fauna, architecture, and land use.\nContemporary landscape designers and land artists from Nicole de Vésian to Fernando Caruncho, Heidi Gildemeister to Paolo Pejrone, Andy Goldsworthy to Gilles Clément, and Jacqueline Morabito to Ian Hamilton Finlay are featured. 265 color photographs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames \u0026 Hudson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44950164996149,"sku":"ByrdShop_0500516111","price":223.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780500516119_23e1b8c6-a843-43e6-a843-176f03cf83fd.jpg?v=1778867817","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/mediterranean-landscape-design-vernacular-contemporary-9780500516119","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
