The New Pastoralism demonstrates how small-scale additions or conversions using planting and wildlife can bring about engaging, delightful and efficient structures and spaces. The book’s numerous contributors each showcase a particular Nature device that they used to enhance their built proposals. Images are provided with text as annotation. The prominent featured architects will include: Michael Sorkin, Nicholas Grimshaw, Ken Yeang, Kathryn Findlay and Mos Architecture. The other contributors will show small or medium sized built projects they have worked on. All contributors will showcase a building, structure or surface as either drawn proposal or built construction.
Mark Titman is a partner in a London-based architectural practice. Last year, Mark won an international design competition to provide the drinking fountains for London's eight Royal Parks, sponsored by Tiffany's. Mark's entry 'Watering Holes' was selected out of 160 entries from 58 countries. The first fountain opened in St James's Park in June 2011. The next is to open in Greenwich Park for the equestrian events at London 2012.
