Best Books of 2022
A Remarkable Honor from ASLA
Landscape Architecture for Sea Level Rise: Innovative Global Solutions, has been recognized as one of the Best Books of 2022 by the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) and featured on their blog, The Dirt. This recognition highlights the book’s valuable contribution to the fields of landscape architecture and climate resilience.
Galen Newman, ASLA, professor and head of the department of landscape architecture and urban planning at Texas A&M University, and Zixu Qiao, a master’s of landscape architecture candidate there, have edited a fascinating look at global landscape architecture-based solutions to sea level rise, with practically-minded case studies from Kate Orff, FASLA, Alex Felson, ASLA, Haley Blakeman, FASLA, Kongjian Yu, FASLA, Amy Whitesides, ASLA, and many others. Smart diagrams in the final chapter transform the book into a toolkit that can help landscape architects sort through the pluses and minuses of natural and hard design elements for different ecological, economic, and social conditions.
We are honored to be among such distinguished works and grateful for the continued support of the landscape architecture community. A heartfelt thank you to ASLA and The Dirt for recognizing our efforts to address some of the most pressing challenges of our time.
