Conceptual Landscapes explores the dilemma faced in the early
moments of design thinking through a gradient of work in landscape
and environmental design media by both emerging and
well-established designers and educators of landscape architecture.
It questions where and, more importantly, how the process of design
starts. The book deconstructs the steps of conceptualizing design
in order to reignite pedagogical discussions about timing and
design fundamentals, and to reveal how the spark of an idea happens
- from a range of unique perspectives. Through a careful
arrangement of visual essays that integrate analogue, digital and
mixed-media works and processes, the book highlights differences
between diverse techniques and triggers debate between design,
representation, technology and creative culture in the field. Taken
together, the book's visual investigation of the conceptual design
process serves as a learning tool for aspiring designers and
seasoned professionals alike. By situating student work alongside
that of experienced teachers and landscape architects, the book
also demystifies outdated notions of individual genius and sheds
new light on the nearly universally messy process of discovery,
bridged across years and diverse creative vocabularies in the
conceptual design process. Lavishly illustrated with over 210 full
colour images, this book is a must-read for students and
instructors in landscape architecture.
