The Landscape Architecture Profession
|
Landscape Architects plan and design urban
and rural landscapes. They employ aesthetic,
functional, and scientific principles with
appropriate use of techniques, natural and
man-made materials and landscape management.

 |
With their creative and inspiring ideas,
landscape architects create sustainable,
aesthetically pleasing and functional spaces,
always taking into account the specific historic
and cultural values. Landscape Architects,
working alone or as part of a team, participate
in design and planning projects, as well
as in environmental assessment and landscape
restoration works. Their skills in site evaluation,
planning, design creativity, planting and
construction, enable them to be involved
in large scale projects.
