Overview
Through talks, group workshops, external walking tours and an independent design project, you will gain an insight to the processes and language of analysing and designing landscape architecture. This Landscape Architecture - An Introduction course is offered at the University of the Arts London (UAL).
Along the way you will develop skills including design development, site survey and analysis, planning, scale drawing and presentation skills. As part of the project you will also be introduced to some relevant technical aspects including access, lighting and materials. There will be a small amount of independent research and study required at the outset of the course.
Course outcomes
You will have established an understanding of what the role of a Landscape Architect entails, along with a good base knowledge of the range and extent of scales, contexts and styles landscape architects generally work within. You will have visited a series of notable landscape spaces across London and also experienced and worked upon your own design project.
