Summary:

A retrospective overview of the landscape architecture of Rosa Kliass, characteristic for her decorative use of forms, colors and textures of plants and flowers, with an emphasis on tectonic elements (walls, floors, volumes, pergolas, waterfalls, mirror fountains and swimming pools). The edition reviews the last 50 year production of one of the most significant figures of the 2nd generation of landscape architects in Brazil who in1969 traveled to the USA, a turning point in her creative career. The book presents a selection of projects including her rehabilitation project of the port Estaçao das Docas (1999-2000) in Belém do Pará, protection project Parque do Abaet (1992) a landmark in Salvador; the Plano Preliminar Paisagístico de Curitiba (1965-66), an urban plan so the paranaense city could find an expansion model in accordance with green areas; project Paisagístico da Avenida Paulista (1973-74), one of the most beautiful avenues in Sao Paulo and in danger of destruction along other individual projects reviewed and chiefly illustrated.
