Course content

One of the most characteristic features of Landscape Architecture is a considerable degree of freedom of design, but freedom based on both functional and aesthetic requirements.
Prehab’s it is the longevity of trees that encourages simplicity of artistic and architectural design, providing gardens with a sense of universal permanence despite the changes taking place in society around them. Gardens should be functional and yet simple in design.

Learning outcome

After passed course, the student shall understand how ecological, infrastructural factors shape the urban landscape, and have broad knowledge of landscape architecture’s themes and concepts.
The way in which the elements of gardens and parks are organized provides a fundamental impression of space, design and scope, thus reflecting something of the essence of both architecture art and sculpture.
