Summary:

"Changes over the course of time is a specific category of landscape architecture in open spaces and with organic materials: sustainability, identity, the preservation and development of our natural environment and our built living environment are designed in and by time-based processes. What does this mean for the concrete implementation in landscape architectural concepts and current projects? In essays, interviews, and presentations of the best projects realized over recent years, Time Scales pinpoints the challenges, tasks, and performance of current landscape architecture." -- Publisher website.
