Beschreibung:
Cornelia Hahn Oberlander (1921-2021) was a landscape architect and educator known for her designs for sites across North America, including the Children's Creative Centre at Expo 67, Robson Square in Vancouver (1978), the National Gallery of Canada (1988), the Northwest Territories Legislative Building (1995), the atrium of the New York Times Building (2002), as well as seventy playgrounds. She was a Companion of the Order of Canada.
Cornelia Hahn Oberlander on Pedagogical Playgrounds is a curated selection of writings by a landscape architect dedicated to children's right to play in urban environments. This volume assembles key texts from the 1960s and 1970s where Oberlander urges city planners and developers to recognize playgrounds as important sites for childhood development and to include them in new construction. She emphasizes the social benefits that free play and independent discovery create, and she provides practical proposals for the formulation of new playgrounds.
