For 20 years, Sydväst has researched and shaped contemporary landscape architecture. In this book, we tell you about what we learned along the way. Here is a selection of our projects accompanied by the thoughts that shaped them. A book about the opportunities and challenges as a landscape architect, but also a book about the desire to draw and the importance of playing with words and talking about Swedish pastry.
The core of this book is the built reality: places, squares, landscapes, farms, parks. But here is also the search itself, the way there. It is our hope that this search will be so visible that you as a reader can be part of the story that is each project, be part of the questions that we wanted to ask and that became a landscape architecture where the answers, the many answers, could take place.
