This document discusses landscape architecture drawings, including their purpose, who creates them and uses them, and the tools and techniques involved. It explains that drawings evolve from analytical sketches and observations to plotted plans, planting plans, and orthographic and perspective drawings. Computer-aided design (CAD) and other digital tools are also used. Drawings represent elements like location, orientation, soil, vegetation and infrastructure to communicate landscape designs and plans. They operate as representations of space and help explore landscape ideas.

drawings

12. Everyone loves the big idea, but now it's down to
designing specifically how that idea will work.
Instead of just a green roof, it's the exact details of how it will look, function and
also how the surrounding factors would influence it. Not only that, but many
projects require a series of drawing as part of a whole master plan or site plan.

53. Landscape is not a concrete definition, but a strong foundation that is a flexible
idea encouraging you to explore and define through your own unique pursuits.
The studio focuses on the process of critical making and exploring the dynamic,
spatial, and environmental elements specific to the medium of landscape
architecture.
