Flussufer in der Stadt sind attraktive Orte von hohem Aufenthaltswert. Das Gestalten solcher urbanen Flusslandschaften ist vielfältigen Anforderungen unterworfen: Hochwasserschutz, Freiraumgestaltung und Ökologie sind im Regelfall die drei beherrschenden Themen. Diese gilt es in Einklang zu bringen, häufig auf sehr beengtem Raum. Wichtig ist es dabei, den Fluss in seiner Prozesshaftigkeit zu begreifen: Bedingt durch wechselnde Wasserstände, Jahreszeiten und Erosions- sowie Sedimentierungsprozesse, ist der Flussraum kein statisches Gebilde sondern einem steten Wandel unterworfen – die Gestaltung muss flexibel sein und dies berücksichtigen.
Das Buch ist Ergebnis einer mehrjährigen Studie, in der über 50 Projekte aus dem westeuropäischen Raum einer vergleichenden Analyse unterzogen wurden. Aus diesen Analysen entstand ein systematischer Katalog sinnvoller Strategien und innovativer Gestaltungselemente. Dem Gestalter und Planer wird erstmals ein Überblick über das Spektrum der zahlreichen entwurflichen Möglichkeiten gegeben. Der prozessorientierte Ansatz des Buches ist insbesondere dann sehr hilfreich, wenn es um langfristige und nachhaltige Maßnahmen geht. Das Buch besteht aus zwei miteinander verbundenen Teilen, die das parallele Betrachten von systematischem Katalog und Beispielteil erlauben. Die übersichtliche Navigation und ein ausführliches Glossar geben zusätzliche Orientierung, und die außergewöhnliche Gestaltung macht dieses Werk auch visuell ansprechend und lädt zum Blättern und Entdecken ein.
