London has undergone a massive urban transformation over the past 15 years, with a significant focus on improving the public realm across its 32 boroughs.
Extensive infrastructure and housing market investments are fueling the need for a range of quality public spaces. Changes include the creation of new public spaces and good quality housing, revitalization of "brownfields" and the upgrading of existing parklands and gardens. Landscape Observer: London provides an overview of around 90 projects that were implemented in recent years, ranging in scale and budget. Photographs capture the spaces in their everyday setup and operation and details of the hard and soft landscape elements are labeled to provide readers with essential information on key materials and plants used in each individual project. An index at the end of the book enables a quick search of the projects and locations.
