  • Author : Kimberly Duffy Turner
  • Publisher : National Geographic Books
  • Release : 2012-01-03
  • ISBN : 0393706249
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Botany for Designers written by Kimberly Duffy Turner and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2012-01-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Botany 101 for professionals who want a summary of planting design fundamentals. Plants are among the most important materials for effective landscape design. Yet the fundamentals of plant biology and growth; their morphology, color, and functional assets; and details such as planting, pruning techniques, and maintenance practices are surprisingly absent from our education and training, which tend to focus on other core principles like drainage, grading, and spatial relationships. What do you need to know about how plants grow and function? How can you determine appropriate plants for a particular site? How can you use their distinct design features effectively? What are the real design considerations to keep in mind? This book—a Botany 101 course for professionals and students alike—walks you through all the answers, equipping you with the ability to be not just an informed landscape designer but also an effective planting designer. Kimberly Duffy Turner, a landscape architect and horticulturalist, explains the essentials of planting design, exploring form and function and showing how various characteristics of plants and trees—shape, pigment, leaf veination, texture, fragrance, sound, height, and more—can be used to achieve effective site-appropriate designs. Specifying appropriate plant material and examining stock at the nursery—drawing up a planting schedule of the species or cultivar, sizes, and quantities—and evaluating modes of transplantation (when to ask for bare root, balled and burlapped, or containerized) are other key “on-the-job” concepts covered. A chapter on green design outlines some of the sustainable trends in botany: the role of LEED certification in landscape design; mitigating environmental problems with plants and open space; the emergence of green roofs and vertical gardens; biomimicry; and sensitive material selection, like composite wood products and plant-derived, soy-based paints. Both a handy appendix of common Latin and Greek terms used in horticulture and a comprehensive list of plant palettes are included. With more than 150 color photographs and schematic drawings illustrating key strategies, Botany for Designers is the professional’s go-to guide, showing you how an appreciation of plant fundamentals can lead to more inspired, well-designed landscapes.

Book Evidence Based Landscape Architecture Through Education in North America

Download or read book Evidence Based Landscape Architecture Through Education in North America written by David Ibey and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to understand whether landscape architects are adequately equipped with the skills to apply research findings to solve practical design problems, this study explores research education in landscape architecture curricula. Phased questionnaires were used to acquire general program information from program contacts and then to generate more specific research course information. Graduate programs were more likely to require students to complete at least one research course, however 325 of 706 of all students represented in the sample were required to take a research course. Research coursework responses revealed a significant, positive correlation between difficulty level of instruction and minimum required competency. The relationship between research instruction level, competency, and ability to practice evidence-based landscape architecture is discussed.

  • Release : 2019-08-30
  • ISBN : 1351212907
  • Pages : 260 pages

Download or read book Teaching Landscape written by Karsten Jørgensen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-30 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching Landscape: The Studio Experience gathers a range of expert contributions from across the world to collect best-practice examples of teaching landscape architecture studios. This is the companion volume to The Routledge Handbook of Teaching Landscape in the two-part set initiated by the European Council of Landscape Architecture Schools (ECLAS). Design and planning studio as a form of teaching lies at the core of landscape architecture education. They can simulate a professional situation and promote the development of creative solutions based on gaining an understanding of a specific project site or planning area; address existing challenges in urban and rural landscapes; and often involve interaction with real stakeholders, such as municipality representatives, residents or activist groups. In this way, studio-based planning and design teaching brings students closer to everyday practice, helping to prepare them to create real-world, problem-solving designs. This book provides fully illustrated examples of studios from over twenty different schools of landscape architecture worldwide. With over 250 full colour images, it is an essential resource for instructors and academics across the landscape discipline, for the continuously evolving process of discussing and generating improved teaching modes in landscape architecture.
