- catalog abstract ""One of the most exciting and popular designers working in the United States, Martha Schwartz has almost single-handedly redefined the notion of landscape architecture. With her background in printmaking, the Boston-based Schwartz has brought an entirely new design language to a traditionally horticulture-oriented profession." "This is the complete monograph of Schwartz's corpus, some 32 works, mostly built, from the United States, Canada, Japan, Germany, Sweden, England and elsewhere. Projects are loosely grouped into themes and presented through breathtaking photographs, accessible drawings and plans, as well as elucidating texts written by a noted landscape critic, Tim Richardson. Interspersed between project families are essays written by Schwartz that give unique insight into her philosophy and her creative process, while provoking considerations about the human-made and natural world of the future." "The colorful, unconventional and wide-ranging nature of Schwartz's work has had a profound effect on the worlds of garden design, urbanism and landscape. It will appeal to professional designers and urban planners, as well as to a non-professional audience looking for inspiration."--Jacket.".
