约翰？O？西蒙兹的《景观设计学——场地规划与设计手册》是现代景观设计学的经典之作和实践手册。西蒙兹先生在书中具体阐述了景观设计、场地规划与设计的理论、方法和导则,将科学性与艺术性结合来思考设计遵循自然的原则,最后提出规划不是形式、空间与形象,不是场所和物体,而是规划体验,一种人性的体验。该文通过总结和思考进一步阐述对体验的理解,通过体验获得的方法与途径,体验融入设计的意义以及体验思维和设计主体、客体即人与场所之间的辩证关系,最后探讨体验设计学对当今景观设计实践的意义和启示。

Experience and Design: Reading Landscape Architecture: A Manual of Environmental Planning and Design

Landscape Architecture： A Manual of Environmental Planning and Design written by John Ormsbee Simonds is a classical and practical manual for modern landscape architecture. Simonds specifically expatiates on the theories, methods and guidelines of landscape architecture, site planning and design, combines science with art to consider the principle of ＂design following nature＂, and finally puts forward the standpoint that planning is not the final form, space or visualization, not a place or an object, but a planning experience, a humanistic experience. Through summarizing and thinking over the main points of this bookmaking, this article further elaborates on the understanding of experience, the ways and means achieved from experience, the significance that experience integrated into design, the dialectical relation between experiencing thinking and design subject and object, i.e. people and places, and eventually probes into the significance and enlightenment of experiencing design theories and methods on contemporary landscape architecture practices.
