About this course:

This course introduces the landscape architectural design process. Emphasizing process and concept development, students identify a problem and then use site inventory, analysis, program development and exploration to test solutions. Projects are small-scale sites—preferably actual and visitable, such as intimate courtyards, street plazas and pocket parks—and/or physically built (i.e., limited use of computer drafting, rendering and 3D modeling).
Prerequisites
ARCH X 471.1A Landscape Design 1: Site Design Basics and ARCH X 472.4E Design Graphics 2: Communication for Site Analysis, Conceptual and Site Design
