Landschaftlichkeit ALS Architekturidee

(bilingual edition: English / German)
The concept of
landscape-ness is gaining increasing importance in architecture not
least due to the rising threat of climate change. Based on international
examples, Margitta Buchert analyzes the potential of architecture for
dealing with contemporary challenges, including socio-cultural
transformations and questions of lifeworld orientations within the
tensions of global networking and local exposure--between natural space
and urban space. Which architectural understandings and characteristics
flow into architecture and urban projects by introducing the concept of
landscape-ness? Which spatial articulating qualities are emphasized? And
what sensibilities and capacities are enriched?
Dimensions of landscape
as nature--however, shaped and reshaped by humans--are in focus, as well
as the connection between aesthetics, architecture, ecology, and the
city.
