In den Park gehen
Landschaft der Gegenwart
geskes.hack Landscape Architects (ed.)
With a great deal of precision and a lot of imagination, geskes.hack design
parks as locations that simultaneously elicit surprise and build identity—and
become a collaborative story told by the planners and visitors. Using practical
examples and discussions of theoretical approaches, the book demonstrates
the potential of parks in the Anthropocene.
The landscape architecture firm has decisively shaped the aesthetics of
German parks and horticultural shows over the past years. Here, it offers an
insight into its working methods, which rest on storytelling. The book documents
groundbreaking projects such as the Kienbergpark (IGA Berlin 2017)
and the Sauerlandpark in Hemer—and, additionally, offers a practical definition
of the elements that constitute contemporary parks.
