Peter Kluska. Landscape Architecture. Projects + Competitions 1970-2010. Landschafts Architektur. Projekte + Wettbewerbe 1970-2010

For over forty years, award-winning, Munich-based landscape architect Peter Kluska has been guided by the idea of creating immersive experiences through the skilful manipulation of space. In this book Kluska examines the concept of spatial construction, open spaces, urban planning, and the critical role of music, nature and art.

Kluska's credo is shaped by the value of experiences obtained from a specific place, with the main focus on people. His work is defined by the quality of his design and the functionality of the space he creates. In Landscape Architecture, Kluska draws on his considerable expertise to examine international urban design, and present his own projects - among them the Cabinet Garden in Munich, the Mainz-Lerchenberg broadcasting centre and the International orticultural Show, Westpark Munich - and a series of his sesigns submitted for competitions. The essays are accompanied by full-colour- photographs. Urban space shapes the experiences of all who visit or reside there , and Landscape Architecture will be of interest to students and scholars of landscape architecture, art and urban planning
