Landscape Representation AMAECHI
OKIGBO
The creative process of design and the development of the
means by which design ideas and solutions can be translated
into human experiences are the primary focus of this course.
During the semester, students develop and translate abstract
site design ideas (or concepts) into spaces and forms, utilizing
the various design media and elements available to landscape
architects and designers. The primary concern is with the
development of proficiency in landscape delineation and rendering
techniques. |

Medium of the Landscape MARVIN
ADLEMAN
This studio is intended to broaden the student’s knowledge,
skills and abilities in applying design principles and processes
to site design. Students focus on organizing and forming outdoor
space, siting buildings and other structures, designing vehicular
and pedestrian circulation, as well as the preservation of
desirable landscape character. The design process, including
site inventory, site analysis and site program development
followed by conceptual, schematic and final site design is
emphasized in all projects.

Medium of the Landscape KATHRYN
GLEASON & KELLY COOK
Every site has an archaeology. Examination of how the memory
of the place can be represented to reveal unanticipated opportunities
for contemporary design imbued with the sense of place, or
genius loci. This studio examines the theoretical proposition
that a landscape is a palimpsest, but never a tabula rasa
or clean slate for the designer. Students entertain a series
of theoretical and representational ideas about the natural
and cultural making of two sites as a basis for design. Objectives
of the studio were to explore the connections between theory
and practice, with theoretical and artistic ideas about representation
moving to design proposals, planting plans, and design details.
The process will include integration of community feedback;
work with a range of specialists and artists, and processes
of individual invention.

Theory, Composition & Design
JEREMY FOSTER & LEONARD MIRIN
The focus of this studio is on the multiple ways in which
we can approach, ‘see’ and ‘make sense of’
a piece of landscape. Landscape architects obviously draw
in order to record and illustrate physical concepts, but what
is not so frequently acknowledged is that they also draw in
order to discover something, which does not yet exist. Synthetic,
creative and poetic invention is the essence of design and,
at the end of the day, what sets landscape architects apart
from the other ‘problem-solving’ professions who
address the environment. Additionally, this studio develops
the student’s basic manual skills as well as his/her
conceptual skills in visualization, composition and interpretation.
