Reviews

To the practitioner, the chapters dedicated to built projects offer the most value. Here designers speculate upon the meaning of a renewed attitude and relationship with water when brought to the built form of their projects. These projects, such as 'Water Gardens as Stormwater Infrastructure (Portland, Oregon)' by Thomas Liptan and Robert Murase, showcase how a water sensitive approach is as much about conceptual principles and technical skills as it is about enriched artistic expression. -Matthew J. Tucker, Conservation Design Forum
