Author Description

Greenspotting Haaglanden considers the meanings of green in Haaglanden, the metropolitan region of The Hague. The authors seek to define the landscape in terms of rhythm, light, feeling, and mathematics. This analysis is preceded by inspiring interviews—with an artist, an economist, an art historian and writer, a landscape architect and filmmaker—in which the meaning of landscape is the common theme. Greenspotting Haaglanden represents an experiential approach; it describes how this approach was arrived at, presents a fresh teaching methodology, and demonstrates the value of interdisciplinarity. Greenspotting Haaglanden is a powerful representation that will inspire many landscape professionals to look at landscape in a new way.
