Planning, Ecology and the Emergence of Landscape

Charles Waldheim is Associate Dean and Director of the Landscape Architecture Program in the John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design at the University of Toronto. Waldheims work examines the relationships between landscape and contemporary urbanism. He coined the term landscape urbanism to describe the recent emergence of landscape as a medium of urban order for the contemporary city. He has authored numerous articles and chapters on the topic, and recently edited: The Landscape Urbanism Reader (Princeton Architectural Press, 2006). Waldheims writing on landscape and urbanism has appeared in Landscape Journal, Topos, Log, Praxis, 306090, Canadian Architect, and Landscape Architecture Magazine.
