"Urban Green" showcases urban spaces that unite nature and culture - projects that integrate into everyday city life while providing a place for a brief retreat from traffic, noise, and stress. The focus is primarily on recently developed town squares and public open spaces. Featured are designs from selected firms that fit into the urban context and stand out due to their diversity of use, unique aesthetic features, and richness of detail. This book illustrates how landscape architects shape the planned space to meet the aesthetic sensibilities and usage needs of city residents. Special attention is given to successful landscape architectural solutions, particularly under exceptional conditions related to climate, space, budget, and usage.
