Contextual rural landscaping
Dohnal, Tomáš
The management and use of the rural environment has its own laws and specifics that must be respected. All interventions in the rural landscape should also be guided by them. The landscape is not a unique author's work of art or an engineering production area, but a complex environment for the life of the inhabitants in the given natural conditions. At the same time, the way to live in the landscape is developed evolutionarily through thousands of years of coexistence. All changes have always been checked by time, both continuously and at breaking points, and the appropriateness of the arrangement of functional areas in the territory is determined only by their long-term use. Not professional experts, but users of the landscape are its true creators. The publication Rural landscaping and its tools tries to map the possibilities and limits of this approach. Its main author, Jiří Löw, has been working on the issue of the use and protection of the rural landscape since the end of the 1970s. The paper describes the main topics and principles of the contextual approach to planning and creating the rural environment.
