Vernacular - The Everyday Landscape of New Zealand, Potton + Burton, 2015
Vernacular' is a book project by myself and Landscape Designer Philip Smith. It is about our everyday landscape, curiosity and the margins of seeing.
'As long as people have lived in New Zealand, they have left traces of all kinds upon the land: stone walls, sculpted earthforms, urban benches, farm fences, boardwalks, walls, steps and drains. These everyday parts of our landscape form the backdrop to our lives, but are a frequently overlooked and under appreciated part of our cultural legacy.'
