For almost thirty years Claude Cormier et Associés has designed Landscapes daring in scope while earnest in execution, courting controversy while inviting public accord.
This, the first book exclusively dedicated to the Landscapes of Claude Cormier and his team, provides a broad overview of their ideas and methods with insightful discussions of selected projects and the thinking behind them..
That people use, and may even love, these urban Landscapes testifies to the pleasure afforded by their designs and the humanistic dimensions of the practice.
It is a practice unique in Canada, arguably in the world.
While always Serious in the address of function, their designs often display a touch of humor in both method and form--in all, these are works marked by Serious fun.
Produced under the leadership of Claude Cormier, the range of these projects has spanned the creation of parks and squares, the renovation of historical landscapes, and the conversion of industrial sites.
