The urban landscape has changed dramatically over the past decade as cities worldwide implement revitalization plans designed to keep urban areas vital and appealing for both tourism and residency.
Bringing a sense of space and place to the public areas of urban cities is essential for the vitality of a city, and many cities are investing heavily in this type of urban development.
Urban Landscape Architecture showcases the most interesting and innovative urban landscape design and reviews the work of great architects and designers in this area.
Each project features sketches, drawings, and photographs and highlights the design details of note for the reader.

Entries are open for the International Master of Architectural Lighting Design Programme at KTH, Stockholm.
The profile of the Architectural Lighting Design Programme is based on a new approach to light and light planning which is a combination of visual, physical and biologically based experience and knowledge applied to design, technology and health.
The educational idea is based on a comprehensive view, where theoretical knowledge will be combined with practical application in laboratory experiments, project work, full scale studies and mock ups.
The international profile of the Programme will offer in-depth discussion and understanding of culturally-based views and values.
The aim of the Programme is to provide the student with the knowledge and understanding to carry out work required to design light for interior and exterior architectural projects, for both electrical and daylight solutions in such a way that the design can be implemented, become an integral part of the project and establish an efficient, enjoyable, healthy, sustainable, safe and well accepted environment for the people who live, work and relax in it.
Deadline is February 1, 2008.

Within the next 20 years, five billion people-representing 60 percent of the world's population-will reside in cities.
To meet the needs and aspirations of an increasingly urban society, design will play a crucial role in helping to anticipate and create the solutions which will enable these complex systems to function sustainably.
To better understand sustainability and how it relates to design and mobility, Art Center has developed a series of five annual participatory Summits.
This crucial dialogue began with the first Summit, Designing Sustainable Mobility, in February 2007.
The second Summit has an ambitious program.
The Art Center Summit: Systems, Cities & Sustainable Mobility will look at the big picture: the broad systems thinking and systems integration needed to create a better future for society.
