Intellectual positions:
- Landscape architects don't make full use of art and creativity.
- Landscape architects pay lip service to data, and don't make full use of data.
- Landscape architecture can be the 21st century's "mother" art.
- Landscape architecture should ally itself to ecology.
- The city is not in a dialectical relationship with nature.
