A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This article interweaves the three terms used in its title: nature, landscape, and the city. The culturally and aesthetically built identity between landscape, nature, and cultivated fields in rural areas remained valid in urban areas,when the great public parks were established in major cities of the 19th century. As the human environment became more and more artificial, that forged identity was questioned, and new placements were required. To face new demands, architects involved in landscape issues should not be satisfied with the positive knowledge already accumulated on the subject. The poetic point of view is seen as essential to update, under contemporary conditions, the experience of the landscape.
