Green Obsession

Trees Towards Cities, Humans Towards Forests

Stefano Boeri / Stefano Boeri Architetti

GRAHAM FOUNDAT. AWARD

The book braces the long path that architect Stefano Boeri and his studio have followed in the last fifteen years of practice, aiming at the redefinition of the relationship between city and nature. Cities have contributed for centuries to the promotion of some of humanity’s greatest ideas, we must now urgently include them as among the principal players in the environmental debate and at the forefront of any policy tackling and countering – possibly reversing – climate change. This book follows a discursive thread, alternating dialogues and scientific essays by some of the main protagonists who have contributed to widening the perspective on this subject, helping to raise awareness while protecting the world and its biodiversity.

With contributions of Emanuele Coccia, Jane Goodall, Paul Hawken, Cecil Konijnendijk, David Miller, Harini Nagendra, Giuseppe Sala and Giorgio Vacchiano.
