Description
Using the five American deserts of the southwestern United States as examples. Desert Landscape Architecture provides an understanding of desert environments, climatic conditions, and unique physical beauty. The author draws on his considerable research, sensitivity, and practical experience to offer insight into how built environments are designed and installed in order to cope with the harsh, unforgiving physiographic area. Bridging the gap between professional jargon and common sense, this book gives detailed information about every facet of landscape design, environmental concerns, water issues, cultural issues, and plant material use.
