Terrain: A Journal of the Built & Natural Environments is a non-profit online journal publishing poetry, essays, fiction, articles, reviews, editorials, artwork, case studies and more in each theme-based issue. It is an award-winning journal searching for that interface—the integration—among the built and natural environments, that might be called the soul of place. It is not definitely about urban form, nor solely about natural landscapes. It is not precisely about human culture, nor necessarily about ecology. It is, rather, a celebration of the symbiosis between the built and natural environments where it exists, and an examination and discourse where it does not.The literary, journalistic, and artistic works contained with Terrain are of the highest quality, submitted by a variety of contributors for a diverse audience, including some of the finest material previously appearing in Terra Nova: Nature & Culture. The works may be idealistic, technical, historical, philosophical, and more. Above all, they focus on the environments around us—the built and natural environments—that both affect and are affected by the human species.

livable place. Composing the poetry is a brilliantly frustrating task,
involving intricate details and entire communities. But it is the vital
structure of our terrain, the stability and the change we need to survive.
And to thrive. He won a 2000 Colorado Artist's Fellowship for Poetry, and
his first book of poetry, Riverfall, will be published in early 2003 by
Ireland's Salmon Poetry (http://www.salmonpoetry.com). When not editing
Terrain or writing poetry, Mr. Buntin is a Web designer, project manager,
