The book is structured as a dialogue between these two waters, which are visualized as horizons in the works and reflections of contributors from a range of disciplines and occupying diverse geographies. Water in this collaboration is not an element to extract, embellishment to design, or a commodity that is scarce. Rather, it is a terrain that challenges assumptions, remind us of our fallibity, accommodates complexity, and political and geographic dynamics, and submerges boundaries between places and disciplines. As a collection of visual and textual essays, this book presents a way to image, imagine, bild, and advocate design in the terrain of water. -- Water 187410 Local Water resources development 187439 Local Water in landscape architecture 289634 Local Dilip da Cunha 217515 lcc 6 First edition GB652 General M384 2014 249751 249751 0 0 lcc 0 0 4 4 33 2016-05-27 amazon 32.94 537224 0 General GB652 M384 2014 91000000047092 2024-10-17 09:46:24 1 42.94 6
