An important course for landscape architects, planners, and other professionals interested in the cultural landscape, this course will introduce students to the identification, understanding, documentation and policy implications of cultural landscapes. While it will touch on the issues of both designed and vernacular landscapes, the focus of the course will be vernacular landscape.

Site engineering problems related to general design including construction processes, alignment geometry, grading, drainage systems, earthwork, and detailing. Emphasis on construction document preparation.

This studio is organized as a collaboration with the architecture department, and landscape and architecture students work together on a common site and program.

The overall goal of this Studio IX is to teach students how to plan and implement open space protection at a landscape scale. This will require the ability to synthesize information about natural features, cultural resources, and development patterns to create a greenway network that addresses the unique problems and opportunities of the study area.

The cultural landscape studio introduces students to the process of research, planning, design, and management of historically and culturally significant landscapes through selected projects for land management agencies and other government or private clients.

In Studio V, students develop an understanding the legal context and as well as the topographic and environmental contexts when site planning for housing. Fundamental site design and planning criteria, development of project organization, and presentation skills are developed. Students work on their design process and the integration of computer techniques.
