LAAR 62100 Landscape Architecture Studio II

The second design studio expands the range of landscape scales and deepens an understanding of urban context. Site analyses reveal narratives richly layered with diverse historical, social, and cultural significance for various groups. Site design is considered as a transformational practice leveraged at multiple scales. Dynamic environmental processes (soils, hydrology, geology, plant communities, and climate) as well as social and economic factors are deeply examined. The studio emphasizes digital presentation techniques and professional collaboration. Design proposals present strategic and transformative plans for implementation at the human, urban, and regional scales.
