AboutAbout the lab
Planning and designing green space in towns and cities
The Urban Environmental Design Lab studies landscape planning and design.
According to the lab's website from around the mid-2000s, the lab has pursued education and research in landscape design and green space planning, with an emphasis on fieldwork.
From small patches of greenery in residential areas to wide-area green spaces and land use, the lab has explored the ideas and methods needed to plan, design, and manage a variety of spaces.
Professor Kinoshita's main interests now are planning for green spaces in Europe and North America, and the conservation of landscape heritage in East Asia.
