This Land Marks introduces Kathryn Gustafson, an American-born landscape architect who practices primarily in France. Focusing on two of her most important French projects, a central town plaza in Evry, outside Paris, and gardens for Shell Petroleum's French headquarters in Rueil-Malmaison, author Leah Levy explores Gustafson's emotive design process and discovers in Gustafson a rich and thoughtful artist who mines the psychology, sociology, and history of sites to produce startlingly beautiful places.
