Landscape as Protagonist

A publication that attempts to challenge the property development industry’s current perspective on plants and landscapes in the built realm; where generally speaking, they are viewed as aesthetic objects used to beautify built spaces. Discussions, findings, interviews with Thomas Doxiadis, Marjetica Potr? and Dan Pearson and essays by Bruce Pascoe, Tanya Patrick, Katherine Sundermann, Andrew Reynolds and Cameron Allan McKean. Illustrations by Al Stark.

The publication content is informed by a symposium held as part of Melbourne Design Week 2019. It features findings, essays, interviews and original photography by Melbourne design studio U-P.
