Reading the Five Dimensions of the Landscape：閱讀地景的五個維度


	How a professional understands “landscape” will determine the valuehe/she places on it and the actions he/she will take to intervene. In other words, the view of landscape influences fundamentally how and in what way the landscape profession involves itself in a landscape. The view of landscape gives direction to guide professional performance and also the impetus driving the use of knowledge and technical skills to provide solutions to landscape issues. Indeed, our limited knowledge and understanding of a landscape can limit the creative solutions we can offer. 　　This book aims to clarify the concept of landscape using the most recent understandings to offer diverse and profound new meanings which can point towards novel creative landscape interventions. In order to build the links between landscape theories and everyday life experience, this book interprets landscape according to five interlayered dimensions. 　　It was written in two languages, and uses notes, stories, drawings, and photos of the author from the author’s personal experience to make the abstract ideas and theories of landscape easier to understand and communicate to the reader. With this book, the author shares his ideas and aesthetic experiences of the landscape along with notes on landscape reading. 　　面對一個環境,專業者們怎麼看或認為什麼是「地景」, 就直接影響接下來會怎麼針對那個地方進行所謂「地景」的調查分析與專業介入。也就是說,對於何謂「地景」的理解,將根本地影響專業者如何進行其「專業介入」,包括介入的方式與內容。此時「地景的觀點」主導了專業知識與技術的應用,就專業力的表現而言,看法賦予「方向感」,並且是驅動「方法」與「做法」的引擎。　　看法的局限,從根源造成專業做法在創意上的限制。　　本書強調最根本能夠造就地景環境做法上的創意性與突破性發展,就是先擴充看法! 當我們能夠更多元、更豐富、更深刻、更透徹的閱讀地景建立觀點,那麼這種深厚的理解將引導我們從更細膩與創意的角度,來發揮地景專業特有的筆觸。本書全部以作者手繪圖與攝影,搭配來自實際生活經驗的文字,以中英文並敘,從五個維度來詮釋地景,讓原本學理性及抽象的地景概念能夠比較容易傳達。作者藉著本書與大家分享「閱讀地景」, 包括對「地景」的觀點與審美。
