Thèse de doctorat
Résumé : | If the connection between the garden and the city disappears from the debate of academics and practitioners, can the methodology, the processes, the techniques and the attitudes ofthe gardener in pruning the rose (and, by extension,the attitudes of the landscape architect andof the farmer) be of help in designing the contemporary city? As such, this PhD aims to contribute to the design methods and techniques in use within the expanded field of landscape architecture in Europe. In order to answer this question, I became increasingly aware over the course of the PhD of my need to develop and communicate this investigation through research models. Pruning the rose became one model for action using cultivation as a ‘regime of care’. The rose itself, as a living structure that man can shape, has implied a tacit understanding of the key-term ‘skeleton’,which I propose to expand upon during the course of the PhD. |
