Course Description:Architecture is a discipline hyper-focused on the individual building, its appearance, its details, its civic presence. Yet structures exist always in a context, built and unbuilt. Where the walls of the building reach the ground, they contain a world of their own and leave out a territory labeled as Landscape Architecture. While its existence is a matter of course, its planning is often an afterthought. Its arrangement in space, in fact, determines a powerful and immersive architecture that precedes the building itself. This course illuminates the impact that Landscape Architecture has on the experience of space, whether a garden for a single-family home, a park, a piazza, an open area. Architecture and Landscape Architecture are inseparable parts of the space we live in. |
