Eco-friendly urban planning and landscape architecture provides a solution in the new architectural context. Focusing on the stormwater management concept, the book introduces key techniques and skills in the water resilient urban design, illustrated with recently completed projects all around the world. In a sponge city, landscape architecture is perceived as a kind of infrastructure that is able to bring to us a low-carbon, smart, eco-friendly lifestyle."--Back cover
