Technical Landscape A Working Handbook for Technical Landscape Architects is a practical guide to the technical development of landscape projects, with a strong emphasis on systems thinking, coordination and professional judgement.
Rather than treating levels, drainage, soil, planting, materials, structures, movement, construction and maintenance as isolated subjects, the handbook shows how they interact as parts of one interconnected landscape system. It brings together working methods, technical principles, practical questions, checks and illustrated examples that can be applied directly to project work.
Written primarily for early- and mid-career landscape architects, students and practitioners working across different professional contexts, the book aims to make the technical logic behind landscape architecture clearer, more systematic and easier to apply in practice.
