序一
十年前組建景觀院時的一切都好像就在昨天，可現在景觀院已經把他們在祖國大地上的作品分類、彙集成書了。說實話，這是我的希望，也是我的要求，他們做到了。有一點要告訴大家的是：他們的成功超出了我的預期，盡管他們自己還有許多的不滿意。
水是生命的起源，人類組成的很大比例是水。人在其出生之前就已經和水有非常親密的接觸。本書以濱水景觀為主題，實際上體現出景觀設計以人為本的觀念。人們無論是生活居住還是工作休閑，都喜歡臨水，更喜歡依山傍水。
現代城市是人類文明發展和進步的產物。景觀規劃師、建築師在規劃與設計的實踐中，必須尊重和順應人與自然的和諧共生關係，對於大自然的地形、水係、植被嗬護並加以科學美化的整理。這是規劃設計者們唯一應該做的事。隻有這樣，城市的景觀、生態，才能符合人們可持續發展的生活和發展要求，成為理想的家園，而要完成這樣的規劃設計需要的是多專業和多學科的“協同”和“整合”，不同的專業學科在“大自然”這個平台上互通融合。
本書是上海市政總院景觀院十年努力和付出的總結。通過書中的這些案例我們可以看到，通過景觀設計能夠有效地解決城市發展中許多方麵的問題。景觀專業作為“一條線索”把這些問題串起來，以順應自然、熱愛自然、保護自然的態度來對待。把設計對自然的尊重和敬畏，通過對自然的研究和認識。用設計手法表現出來，通過工程展現出來，希望通過本書和同行交流心得，推進專業發展。

Foreword
It feels like yesterday the whole picture of establishing the institute ten years ago.Now our institute has categorized the works of our motherland and compiled them into a book.To be honest，this is my hope as well as my requirement.And they have succeeded.One thing I want to tell you is that，though they feel like they have a lot to be improved，their achievement has exceeded far beyond my expectations.As the origin of life，water accounted for a large proportion of the constitution of human being.Before birth，man had been very intimate with water.Taking the waterfronts landscape as the theme，this book is a reflection of the people—oriented concept of landscape design.Whether to live，to work，or to enjoy the leisure time，people like their places to be surrounded by water，or by water and mountains.
Modern city is the product of human civilization and progress.Landscape planners and architects must，in their planning and design practice，respect and comply with the harmonious coexistence between man andnature，as well as protect and make scientific plans about the topography，water，vegetation of nature.This is the fundamental rule that designers should adhere to.Only in this way can the landscape and ecology of the city meet the living and development needs of people's sustainable development，thus making it to become an ideal home.To accomplish that，the "synergy"and "integration"among multi—specialties and multi—disciplinaries on the platform of “Nature”are needed.
