Reviews

This volume of extensive essays provides a fascinating insight into the spatial continuums between interior and landscape. I read it in a variety of spaces: airports, train-stations and at home. It offered beguiling new insights into those fluid environments. * Graeme Brooker, Head of the Interior Design programme at the Royal College of Art, UK * Not to be confused with the simply amorphous or just `going with the flow', the wide-ranging and interdisciplinary case studies and essays collected here examine how artists and designers strive to interweave interior and exterior spaces. By articulating the interstitial zone between self and world, subject and object, building and landscape, this book focuses our attention on important questions of how design can open our world to greater synthesis and less subdivision. And that - from the way we see, to how we build our cities - is more important than ever. * Richard J. Weller, Chair of Landscape Architecture at PennDesign, USA *
