Landscape Architectural Graphic Standards is an entirely new, definitive reference work for everyone involved with landscape architecture, design, and construction. Based on the 70-year success of Architectural Graphic Standards, this new book is destined to become the "bible" for the landscape field. Edited by an educator and former president of the American Society of Landscape Architects, it provides immediate access to rules-of-thumb and standards used throughout the planning, design, construction and management of landscapes.

Len Hopper is one of mine and everyone else's favorite professors at City College of New York / School of Architecture, Landscape Architecture and Urban Design / Landscape Architecture. So what can I say? I haven't read this whole new book, of course. But the courses he taught on site planning and site technology were always very clear and well-illustrated.
He is a former president of the American Society of Landscape Architects and head of the New York City Housing Department Office of Landscape Architecture.
