Conventions for documenting projects for construction and contracts associated with project delivery are shared across the architectural design sector, however, with its focus on outdoor spaces, particular elements like plants & topography, and its scale, landscape architecture is different. This unit synthesises the technical skills and knowledge required to become a graduate Landscape Architect.
