1. A landscape architects profession
 Design and manage open spaces both of the natural and
built environments.
 Plan and produce projects which are both sensitive to their
environment and efficient to construct and manage.
 Projects they handle range from designing the layout of
parks, gardens and housing estates to city-centre design.
 Work closely with landscape contractors, architects, planners
and environmentalists.

2.  Bubble diagram is the start of landscape
drawing when the next step is quick concept.
 A detailed diagram can be done after quick
concept.

4. o Site analysis plan
o Bubble plan
o Plot plan
o Concept images
o Rendering / perspective
o Planting plan

5.  Site analysis is an evaluation or judgement about
the conditions of the site elements.
 Advantages :
 Saves energy by restricting site disturbance;
 Allows land to be developed efficiently with the minimum degree of
environmental impact
 Helps preserve the natural and qualities of the site and its surrounding area.

7. Example of a site analysis executed for a rural site
in a steep, heavily wooded area

8.  Bubbles are used to designate areas for specific
purposes in a simple drawing.
 Refine the design based on the needs of the client
 Advantage :
 help us understand space adjacency, layouts, and relationships, and
relative space sizes among other things.
 E.g. dining area, seating area, cooking area, play
area, gardening area. Where are the good views,
problems areas, slopes, sun areas, wind area, utility
lines?

10.  General idea of the entire landscape's features,
structures, layout and dimensions.

12.  Photo examples of features similar to those included in
the plot plan
 Help give you an idea of what things will look like.

14.  A drawing or computer generated image that shows
the colours, texture, lighting, shading and depth
that will be present in the landscape.
 Advantage:
 Helpful in conveying ideas
 Give the illusion of space and distance.

16.  A labelled diagram that shows the quantities,
location, size, shape and colour of specific plants to be
used in the landscape.

22.  Most landscape plans are drawn to a scale of
1:10 ( 1 inch on paper : 10 feet on ground )
 Other popular landscape scales are 1:4, 1:5,
1:8, 1:10, 1:16 and 1:20.
 Scales of 1:4, 1:8 or 1:16 match the common
increments used on a conventional ruler, but
scales of 1:10 and 1:20 are used by engineers
and landscape architects.

23.  Lines used to represent the rise and fall of
the land that appear on maps and plans.
 Represent a line at a certain height traced
upon the surface of the land.
 Landscape architects use contours to
create grading plans for a site.
 Plans that show how the surface of the
land is to be shaped, so that ground may be
cleared and ready for buildings to be built
