Product Description
American landscape designer Kathryn Gustafson, long one of the most respected in her field, recently garnered international acclaim with her Diana Memorial Fountain in Hyde Park, London. Moving Horizons, the first comprehensive monograph on her work, showcases her recent projects for the American Museum of Natural History in New York, the Millennium Garden in Chicago, the Great Glass House in Wales, the Amsterdam Westergasfabriek Park, and the Garden of Forgiveness in Beirut. In total, thirty projects underline Gustafson's distinctive and highly artistic style, characterized by sensual sculptural forms that have made her the landscape designer of choice for architects like Norman Foster, Mecanoo, and Renzo Piano.
