Hideo Sasaki was one of the most consequential designers and educators of the twentieth century. His legacy lies in bringing the design professions of landscape architecture together with the other planning and design disciplines in his teaching at the Harvard Graduate School of Design and the professional practice that he founded, Sasaki.

The author, Richard Galehouse, first a student and later a partner of Hideo, traces the development of the Sasaki professional practice in the early decades of the 1960s and 1970s. Through selected case studies Galehouse illustrates the legacy of design collaboration that Hideo endowed to his professional practice, Sasaki, as it lives on today.

In a distinguishing feature of the book, Mr. Sasaki speaks directly to the reader through excerpts from the long interview that the author carried out with Hideo Sasaki five years after Hideo's retirement.

All book proceeds support the Hideo Sasaki Foundation's mission of equity in design.
