Résumé:
The relationship between landscape and architecture became strained in the early Modern Movement when the two parted ways in an effort to idealize place making. The aim of this volume of essays is to create a platform where these two disciplines may be reunited in a critical dialogue. The book originates from a symposium of the title and lecture series organized by the School of Architecture at Arizona State University during 1998-1999. It includes over 20 essays by academics and professionals whose work addresses the need to reconsider these two disciplines as complementary pieces of the same puzzle.

Résumé:
"When I was thirty, the first generation of architects that one looked upon to was L Corbusier; the second was jean Prouvé and Josép-Luis Sert; next were George Candilis, Shadrach Woods, and Alexis Josic. These were the people you were talking about, and the connection between them were observable. Even though between these generations there wasn't any copying in a stylistic sense, there was a kind of moral overlap. That's the curiosity. There's not a hint stylistically in their work but there is a moral position." -Peter Smithson
