This L3 unit was taught in B.UD at CEPT University. The unit focus is centered on the design of public spaces from a ‘productive’ perspective. Defining ‘productive’, simply put, it is an approach where landscapes strategies enhance ecological processes, food production, or provide community spaces. Taking this approach can lead to meaningful landscape design projects that can reconnect city dwellers to new typologies of spaces while strengthening the role public spaces can play in the functioning of cities.
