Project 2A:Design Process-Research & Analysis {Individual}

 

Introduction

The professional works like landscape architecture projects should be developed in systematic process. Its purpose is to best arrange the elements of any planned development in relation to the natural and constructed features of a site and its environs. The responsibility of a designer is to guide those involved in the best solution and to help ensure in all ways possible the project’s success.

 

The objectives of this project:

 To explore the anatomy of landscape project and process involved in every stages.

 To demonstrate the understanding of site selection and site analysis via graphic communication skills.

 

 

After doing the group project , we also need to do individual task.

Individually, we are required to produce a graphic journal which comprises of a series of element provided below. The graphic journal plays as a sketch journal of elements in landscape architecture field. You are free either to trace or to sketch/doodle/draw on your own (all in not to scale) and to combine as a journal. The elements required for this assignment are as follows:

A) Vegetation

i) Plan view of 10 different types of trees (flowering & non flowering), shrubs, palms and groundcovers/turf.

ii) Elevation drawing of 5 different types of trees (flowering & non flowering), shrubs, palms and groundcovers/turf.

 

B) Natural Elements

i) Plan view of rocks and waterways (river/stream/lakes).

ii) Elevation view of above chosen elements.

 

C) Hardscape

i) Plan view of 5 different patterns of paving (e.g; bricks, concrete, random flagstone, pebbles etc.)

ii) 3 plan or/and elevation views of building with roof shading, pergola, gazebo, pool/fountain

 

However, this project had help me a lot for future because I had learned mzny knowledge about plan & elevation view of plants , hardscape & houses.
