Villa Müller designed by Adolf Loos for Dr. František Müller, co-owner of a successful building company, is one of the most remarkable works of modern architecture in Europe.
The garden, designed at the same time with the villa, is a joint work of three successful landscape architects: Camillo Schneider, Karl Förster and Hermann Mattern.
The modelling of the terrain including retaining walls and steps has been preserved
in its entirety and restored during the reconstruction of the house around the year 2000
to the original state of the 1930s.
The garden was laid out and planted according to the original plans.
Now is a part of the UNESCO World Heritage listing for the Historic Centre of Prague.

The Park Přátelství is the central green area of the housing estate Prosek in the north of Prague and is appreciated as perhaps the most outstanding example of modern public park in the Czech Republic. Designed by leading Czech landscape architect Otakar Kuča, the park was originally conceived to cover 23 hectares of land. Five years after the competition when the implementation of the award-winning scheme started, the site area was reduced to 8 hectares.
Despite such dramatic reduction the project retained its most significant feature: a waterway in a concrete bed forming an irregular zig-zag line with eleven overflows and a waterfall conceived as an abstract sculptural work.

The industrial and subsequently post-industrial landscape is characterized by a number
of typical attributes and creates an image of regional identity.
However, it is discussed more from an ecological and environmental point of view, with regard to the occurrence of biotic communities and species or soil and water remediation.
Industrial landscapes as a category of historical cultural landscapes have not been sufficiently studied yet, methodological aspects of research for evaluation, classification and typology of this type of landscape are just at the beginning.
This article proposes recognising and leveraging the heritage value of industrial landscape as a specific layer of culture and history that has been often overlooked.

A sense of place is a unique collection of qualities and characteristics – visual, cultural, social, and environmental – that provide meaning to a location. Sense of place is what makes one land different from another, but sense of place is also what makes our physical surroundings worth caring about.
Historic integrity is one of those qualities.
Determining historic integrity is usually based on the composite effect of location, design, setting and association. These elements typically focus on architectural features and rely on visual characteristics that are not always suitable for industrial landscape. A more appropriatte application may be to include ‘continuity’ as an important attribute.
Historic evaluation of industrial landscape considers how well the historical landscape represents the period of time or theme for which it is being recognized. Historic District criteria refer to this as the ‘period of significance.’
