Construction And Design Manual: Drawing For Landscape Architects 1: Basic Drawing, Graphics, And Projections: Construction And Design Manual

Description

Both instructional and inspirational, it covers the basics of landscape-architectural representation in an easy-to-understand way, encouraging readers to draw their ideas and develop their own graphic language and style. Landscape architects rely heavily on graphics to communicate content and ideas. From large-scale master plans and strategic visions, to design concepts and specific moods, through to types of vegetation and -precise construction details - at some point everything has to be explained on paper. This handbook focuses on areas which, even in the age of digital media, are still staples of the profession: drawing, graphics, and projections. Showcased in these pages are many examples from landscape architecture offices worldwide, offering practical guidance and ideas in key thematic areas.
