Towards drought-sensitive cities. The ambition of the book is to give a contemporary insight in the state of the art when it comes to designing our cities and landscapes for dry conditions. Water, or the absence thereof, is an important issue to consider. Many cities around the world are increasingly suffering heat, droughts and occasional severe flooding and rainfall. This asks for new approaches, and methodologies to (re)design the urban and rural condition to stay livable. This book aims to connect theories (the methodologies and approaches) with practice (concrete examples and projects). Architecture. 66049 Landscape architecture.
