Author Diana Balmori has worked in the field of landscape architecture most of her life, and since she has achieved a well-deserved degree of renown; her expertise and perspective makes this book especially insightful and valuable.However, I've removed a star because the text is too tiny for comfort, and its size adds an unattractive sense of miniaturization to the book. In natural light or with reading glasses I can read it easily enough, but a little less information - or the same information expressed more succinctly - would greatly increase the visual appeal. I assume all books in this AD Primer series carry the same general format, but related to my remarks about point size of text, if the publishers were not going to produce this book or the series in a larger format (not necessarily coffee-table size), I'd recommend increasing the font size. But happily, there's still enough literal "white space" on each page for create an altogether pleasing presentation. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Balmori had an excellent way to address drawing to see rather than just show. *by F***V on December 20, 2017* I've used this book when teaching Lanscape architecture students and finally bought my own copy. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting account of the ways we illustrate the landscape *by S***T on September 1, 2014* I am a landscape architect with a strong background in fine arts and graphic design. One of the biggest debates in our profession today is do we draw designs by hand or is it quicker to illustration on the computer? This book examines the ever-changing ways in which our profession represents landscapes and designs. The book begins by discussing why we draw and the different effects on how we feel about what we are drawing simply by using different media. Several illustrations both of the author's own drawings as well as other well known designers help to convey the idea that just as our landscape is ever changing, so too are the ways in which we see the landscape through our graphic representations.I thoroughly enjoyed the illustrations and historical references, however my only complaint is that often the illustrations on a page are referenced on another part of the text so there is some flipping back and forth to find the illustration that goes with the text. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/22590178-drawing-and-reinventing-landscape-architectural-design-primer-1st-edition](https://www.desertcart.us/products/22590178-drawing-and-reinventing-landscape-architectural-design-primer-1st-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
