This book analyses recently designed open spaces and their treatment of water. They are conceived as amphibious landscapes that dynamically adjust to both dry and wet conditions and embrace dramatic variations, seeing water not as an enemy but an aesthetic element.Organised in the four categories urban parks, neighbourhood parks, squares and streets, the book thoroughly investigates 26 European case studies. It demonstrates that stormwater must not be seen as a menace but as an invigorating part of urban life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9783035628999.
