Abstract

This book is about methodologies in the field for landscape architecture, which of course has always been part of the methodologies in the field of landscape architecture. It acknowledges that fieldwork is not new. But the concerns of climate have adjusted the lens, iniquitous power relationships are now more apparent, and the technologies for distancing ourselves from realities have become more available. So, we need to reinvent the way we do fieldwork, because reading about, feeling and tacitly knowing the relationship between a landscape and its people is still core to making creative turns in landscape architecture.
