dc.description.abstract | The past decade has been witness to a resurgence of interest in ecologically sustainable thinking about the design and management of reclaimed, post-industrial landscapes. As a result, landscapes that were not previously considered fit for habitation, are now being rehabilitated and redeveloped for new uses. This project engages in a discourse about thoughts on landscape, and investigates techniques to the task of transforming out dated and disused post-extraction landscapes through design. | en_ZA |
