Those images of terraced amphitheaters are beautiful
to observe and think about in terms of land forms, structures,
and earth architecture.... as well as terraced agriculture and
what goes into these creations and how they are used.

To see the terraced amphitheaters, go to:

Defending Against Frost, The American Way: Past
& Present || A Photo Gallery By Kashyapa A. S. Yapa

Which brings me to these next resources on form and structure.

Permaculture UK Magazine No. 34 had pointers
to the organic architecture of Antoni Gaudi and the
land artist forms of Chris Drury.

Here are some web-based resources to observe.
