Thought this was going to be about art not architecture but still informative.

I did enjoy the book but I felt like they were slowly convincing me that it was unnecessary to have a book on the topic. 

Alison Page is a great writer but she didn’t have much to say so they relied on Paul Memmot who had a bit too much to say ended up droning on and repeating himself. The mid-section of the book was definitely the best with a bunch of anecdotes from both authors but really left much to be desired. I would’ve loved if they had spoken about how to design in conjunction with country, which is what I expected. 

If you’re looking for an ok book about indigenous settlement plans then this is it, otherwise it’s pretty unnecessary
