This collection of outstanding projects for public spaces is an excellent overview of current trends in urban planning. From the Stone Garden fountain where children are encouraged to play to the intriguing landscape created by the "flying floors" of an airport ticketing pavilion, each project can be thoroughly explored with full-colour photographs, sketches, ground plans and commentary. The grandeur of the glass canopies at the Canary Wharf Underground Station or the warmth of Japan's Four Seasons Garden show the wide variety of materials and techniques used.
