   |  | visionary landscape architect-
   |  |ure firm OJB uncovers the phil-
   |  |osophy that guides the practic-
   |  |e and reveals the transformati-
   |  |ve power of landscape through -
   |  |a selection of case studies dr-
   |  |awn from the firm\'s thirty-yea-
   |  |r history. Founded in 1989 by -
   |  |landscape architect James Burn-
   |  |ett, OJB－－the Office of James -
   |  |Burnett－－has since grown to ne-
   |  |arly one hundred professionals-
   |  | working across five offices a-
   |  |nd has established itself as a-
   |  | leader in the field for its a-
   |  |mbitious approach to community-
   |  |-building through landscape. A-
   |  |t its core, the firm believes -
   |  |that landscape is a social and-
   |  | collective tool for integrati-
   |  |on, reclamation, and healing. -
   |  |This principle guides all of t-
   |  |he firm\'s projects across sect-
   |  |ors, from its designs promotin-
   |  |g restorative healthcare, such-
   |  | as campuses for hospitals and-
   |  | wellness centers, to large-sc-
   |  |ale urban landscapes conceived-
   |  | to reconnect and revitalize c-
   |  |ommunities, such as the acclai-
   |  |med Myriad Botanical Gardens a-
   |  |nd the other initiatives compl-
   |  |eted as part of Oklahoma City\'-
   |  |s Project 180 public works pro-
   |  |gram. This book highlights OJB-
   |  |\'s remarkable and meaningful w-
   |  |ork－－and the philosophy that d-
   |  |rives it－－through fifteen proj-
   |  |ects of varied typologies arra-
   |  |nged in a rhythm progressing f-
   |  |rom single works to longer mul-
   |  |ti-project narratives in which-
   |  | landscapes connect and build -
   |  |on each other over several yea-
   |  |rs to create thoughtfully real-
   |  |ized and impactful environment-
