Landscape Architecture

Landscape architecture is also often referred to as landscape design. Although it can be true, but calling it 'landscape design' is underrated. Landscape architecture is much more than just designing and aims for a greater goal than just aesthetics.

What is Landscape Architecture?

Landscape Architecture In its broadest sense, landscape architecture is designing an outdoor area, landmark, or structure to improve its aesthetics, social effect and environment. The common landscape design often improves the beauty of an outdoor space, but landscape architecture does more than that.

Before drawing the plan, a landscape architect has to survey the area and experience it. Does the area seem isolated? Does it feel irritating? Or does it disturb peace of mind? Landscape architecture aims to improve the overall 'feel' of the place. That's when the architect starts to identify the potential threats that may hinder having the perfect landscape setting.

The perfect landscape is defined differently, though. It is the owner of the space who has the authority to dictate how the landscape will appeal to people. It can be a solid ground for displaying a superb artistry or an inviting area for relaxation or peaceful conversation.

With a carefully planned landscape architecture, creating a perfect landscape is possible. And it can certainly be achieved because the field itself is multi-disciplinary as it combines ecology, geography, environmental psychology, earth sciences, geology, industrial design, architecture, fine arts, horticulture and botany.

Qualities of a Good Landscape Architect

There is one thing that separates a landscape architect from a landscape designer - a license. The license assures clients that they are dealing with a professional. It just makes sense to hire a landscape architect than to settle with an inexperienced landscape designer.

Landscape Architecture But more than the license, a good landscape architect must have a great deal of experience in the field. A landscape architect must be able to transform any area, whether residential or commercial, into a more pleasing environment. And that will be attested by their portfolio and list of former and satisfied clients.

It's also a plus if the landscape architect can do more than just designing. He must also have experience in landscape construction and maintenance. This will ensure that whatever he designed will be possible for construction and easy to maintain.
