Landscape Urbanism
FLDIntegration of landscape design with urban planning to reshape cities through ecological and social systems.
Landscape urbanism treats cities as dynamic ecosystems where natural systems, infrastructure, and public space work together. This approach moves beyond traditional urban design to use landscape as a primary tool for organizing urban form and addressing environmental challenges.
The community explores projects that restructure cities through food systems, post-industrial reclamation, ecological tourism infrastructure, and co-designed public spaces. Work ranges from small interventions like pocket forests to large-scale strategies that embed natural systems into urban fabric.
