About the event
Proudly presented by the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning at the University of Melbourne and the Singapore Institute of Landscape Architecture (SILA)
The Big Asian Book of Landscape Architecture offers one of the first comprehensive discussions of contemporary landscape architecture practice across the Asian region. Edited by Jillian Walliss from the University of Melbourne and Heike Rahmann from RMIT University, this book brings together established designers and thinkers with those of the new generation, to explore what it means to design, do business, and think about nature, space, and urbanism with an Asian sensibility.
Continuing Professional Development (CPD ) points will be made available to SILA members. Light refreshments will be served.
