Description: The book presents the personal and professional experiences of landscape architect Rosa Grena Kliass, internationally recognized as one of the most important contemporary professionals in the field of design and landscape planning. "The journey begins in the 1930s, from her life as a child in São Roque. The city, its characters, its landscape and its key elements constitute the first universe of the girl who, at eleven years old, broadens her horizons when she goes out to study in the capital of São Paulo. After her university education at the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism of USP, she develops an enthusiastic professional career, with projects that marked the urban landscape of São Paulo, Belém, Salvador and other cities. The narrative of the landscape architect - based on several interviews recorded by the organizers Lucia Maria Sá Antunes Costa and Maria Cecilia Barbieri Gorski - is interspersed with testimonials from family, friends and professionals who participated in her life and work over more than eighty years. The book is a rich and original chronological reconstruction and constitutes an important record of a unique trajectory that has profoundly and definitively transformed the professional practice in landscape architecture in Brazil."
