Stosslu

Description

StossLU is a Boston-based critical, collaborative design and planning studio that operates at the juncture of landscape architecture, urban design, and planning-in an emerging field known as landscape urbanism. This field addresses sites in relation to the broader ecological, environmental, infrastructural, and social-cultural processes and systems that constitute them; it understands sites as caught up in landscape process, civic life and the cultural imagination. 15 projects by StossLU are included in this monograph and Charles Waldheim writes about StossLU and their work.
