What type of space...

The metropolitan trails project suggests we widen the parameters of the so-called 'urban'. That in a new era, with an updated definition of nature the gap between the natural and the man-made has narrowed; the two are now intertwined. Does this need to be considered negatively? Is it a distraction to focus on 'landscape' in my practice with the assumption that that only includes the 'natural' world? My definition of landscape is widening, a return to use of the word space to describe our surroundings, free from above categorizations.
