Places Made after Their Stories : Design and the art of choreotopography

Carter describes a place-making technique in which places are made after their stories mythically and scientifically, historically and administratively, and creatively or mythopoetically. His perspectives include material thinking in the meeting place, the designer as dramaturg, listening to the water underground, the name of the grove, the laws of chance meeting, the haunt of ghosts, bicultural senses of place, and the importance of personal style.
