ARCH 561 - Landscape Architecture: Theory and Practice


Cross-Listed with: ARCH 461  
Prerequisites: ARCH 321 , and senior standing
Requirement Fulfillment: Architecture Elective
Introduces the theoretical underpinnings and design processes of landscape architecture as a discipline and as a contemporary practice. Modes of interpreting, inventorying, and working with the landscape and the materials used in landscape construction will be examined. Class lectures, case study research and simple design exercises will look at landscape design at multiple scales. The central role of landscape design as an integral component of sustainable development practices will also be examined. As the graduate offering of Arch 461 lectures are shared; however, grading criteria, assignments and the quality of independent research will reflect graduate level coursework and achievement expectations.
