What is landscape architecture? What is landscape design?
A. Landscape architects work on a wide variety of projects involving design and use of outdoor spaces and land – from city parks and residential gardens to historic preservation. Landscape Architecture training and education incorporates knowledge and principles from architecture, civil engineering and urban planning. Landscape Design is a subset – and the historical core – of the landscape architecture profession. It deals specifically with site design, plans for the site’s structure and selection of construction materials and plantings.
