Thanks Hannah, I was thinking how to dismantle aesthetic principles that stem from hierarchical world-views – symmetry, tapis vert expressed in lawn, neatly cut borders, one-species-tree alleys and other design formalisms that replicate until today, and could be overcome by tools that landscape architecture already uses (biodiversity, naturalisation of water streams, successive planting, etc.) but doesn’t yet addresses as decolonizing practices (or?). I’m interested too, how to develop this.

I particularly value the exploration of the colonizing landscape view. While framed within conservation concerns, I believe its principles can extend broadly to landscape architecture—encompassing design, aesthetics, planning, perception, and positionality. Bluwstein’s full-length article is available here and is a vital piece of research: https://journals.librarypublishing.arizona.edu/jpe/article/id/2850/.
If you’re aware of similar research conducted in the U.S. or elsewhere, I’d appreciate any references.
