Description

Designed Forests: A Cultural History explores the intricate relationship between forests and spatial design. It examines how architecture's encounters with the forest have shaped its culture and practice, and how this can inform more sustainable and ethical approaches to building today. The book delves into global narratives, exploring topics such as the development of forest plans in colonial India, the impact of deforestation on urban landscapes, and the role of forests in shaping our understanding of nature. By weaving together these stories, Dan Handel sheds light on the complex interplay between nature and culture. This book is a valuable resource for professionals working in landscape architecture, urban planning, and architecture, as well as those concerned with broader environmental issues.
