Brickwork, which has a long history of successful usage in garden work, is increasingly being recognised as an excellent material for use in urban landscaping. In addition to its flexibility of scale, its suitability for both walling and paving allows continuity of appearance and harmony with nearby buildings. The wide choice of colours and textures makes it attractive for both formal and informal situations, and it has the great attraction of retaining its good appearance with minimum maintenance. However, although the general characteristics of brickwork as used in buildings are well documented and understood, there are important additional aspects to consider when it is used in landscaping. Exposure conditions are more severe and the correct choice of material, together with appropriate detailing, is important, while its application as paving, which need not be confined to pedestrian usage, calls for attention to drainage and a knowledge of bedding methods. This handbook, a revised version of a series that appeared in The Architects' Journal, gives guidance, based on internationally gathered data, on the properties, choice, and use of clay or calcium silicate brickwork for paving, freestanding and retaining walls, and other landscape features. In addition to the technical information are many photographs, taken from a wide variety of international sources, which provide a palette of ideas for the kind of design effects that can be achieved with what is perhaps the most environmentally sympathetic of all traditional building materials.

The stepped terraced house is a type of building that meets modern housing requirements: it is economical and offers ample living space with the comfort of terrace and garden. Rising to popularity with the advent of new social movements it was forgotten with the progressive erosion of the new ideas of society and relegated them to obscurity or even to their disqualification as eyesores. Yet the enduring satisfaction of residents and ecological advantages of green houses make terraced housing as attractive as ever. The buildings studied in the book are not only architectural icons today; even today, one can still learn from them about what residential buildings need. One proponent of this building style was Harry Glück; part of his text pleading the case for a green city is printed here.
