Garden Futures: Designing with Nature

Description

Gardens have always been places of leisure, pleasure, and production. They reflect identities, dreams, and visions. They also have deep cultural histories and immense symbolic potential. The recent revival however has focused less on the garden as a site of romantic refuge and more on the garden as a place to imagine the future otherwise; urban farms, vertical gardens, and other innovative urban planning projects demonstrate that this present return is no timid retreat but a pioneering quest for a world in which ecological justice counts for something.
