Innate Terrain: Canadian Landscape Architecture, is a book that is concerned with the practice and theories of Canadian landscape architecture. It is edited by Alissa North with a Foreword by Ron Williams, and includes chapters written by Canadian landscape architectural scholars and practitioners, which document the breadth of contemporary practice from across the country. The chapter authors use these works of landscape architecture to theorize a distinct approach practiced by Canadian landscape architects in their national context. The book’s central argument is that Canadian landscape architecture is distinct because of the unique qualities of the Canadian terrain and the particular relationship that Canadians hold with the landscapes of our nation.
