BEFORE IS BEFORE explains the design and construction of public space and landscape through a catalogue of strategies and actions. It is not a set of universal recipes. They are real cases that show, in a quick and simple way, the 'modus operandi' of the authors. This book reflects on the moment 'before' the project.
