TY - JOUR TI - Public engagement in the design process for landscape architecture objects AU - Rzeszotarska-Pałka, Magdalena AU - Czałczyńska-Podolska, Magdalena TI - Public engagement in the design process for landscape architecture objects AB - Although the issues of social involvement in the landscaping design process are essential for creating a peoplefriendly environment, in Poland, it is still insufficiently identified. The purpose of the article is to present selected examples of various levels and methods of public involvement in the landscaping design process in comparison to the theoretical principles of public participation in the architectural design. The analysed examples were selected in terms of differences in public participation levels, social dialogue tools used and communication with the designer, as well as due to a different functional program. Social involvement should not end at the stage of pre-design consultations. It is necessary to aim at its maintenance and strengthening also at the design stage, and, above all, during implementation and further use of the space.   VL - 2017 IS - Volume 12 Year 2017 (114) PY - 2017 SN - 0011-4561 C1 - 2353-737X SP - 47 EP - 61 DO - 10.4467/2353737XCT.17.209.7752 UR - https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/czasopismo-techniczne/article/public-engagement-in-the-design-process-for-landscape-architecture-objects KW - public engagement KW - public space KW - landscape architecture
