This document provides an overview of key concepts in site planning and landscape architecture. It discusses natural factors like geology, geomorphology, hydrology and vegetation that must be considered when planning sites. It also covers cultural factors, aesthetic factors, and socio-economic factors relevant to site selection and design. The document defines important terms related to topography, drainage, slopes, and landscape elements.

Site Planning – the art of arranging structures on the Convex
land and shaping the spaces between; the art and
science of arranging the uses of portions of land ANGLE OF REPOSE – angle at which soil can be safely inclined and beyond which it will 2 Methods of Establishing a Site fall 1.

COMPOSING THE PLANTING DESIGN
5 Fundamental Principles of Planting Design EXPLORING DESIGN IDEAS Composition: 1. Establishing a design concept 1. Line – the essence of plant form 2. Determining the design program 2. Form – the overall outline or silhouette of a 3. Creating the design plant 3. Mass – 3D grouping of plants Design Entails Analysis 4. Texture – the surface qualities of plants Axial Conditions (axis) – an imaginary line about which a 5. Color – the reflection of the different bands of form, area, or plane is organized light on an object Circulation – represents design elements of both Principle Design Elements Related to Principle Design movement and rest, setting the pace, mood, Components atmosphere and experience 1. Balance – the mass is distributed equally on Geometry both sides of the axis Grid – a system of coordinates; an understandable 2. Emphasis – differentiates the more important pattern from the less important Hierarchy – refers to the physical form of rank ordering 3. Proportion – the actual size of an object or its of space or features size relative to another objects; absolute Points of transition – loci of change, from inside to proportion – size or scale of an object; relative outside, darkness to light, etc. proportion – object’s perceived size Structuring elements – physical forms that define space 4. Repetition – the placement of the same or Public vs Private spaces similar form, texture, or color over and over The borrowed view – describes scenery or elements again beyond the actual design 5. Rhythm – a patterned repetition of a design Jie Jing – Chinese principle at a regular or irregular intervals Shakkei – Japanese 6. Scale – perception of an object’s size based on Integrazione scenica – Italian its relation to the human body or relation to Figure and ground – to reveal the form of the ground another object plane by darkening the figures of the design 7. Sequence – arranges the design so the viewer’s attention moves in a different way 8. Simplicity – restraint, moderation and fitness of design 9. Symmetry – similarity of size, form, and arrangement of parts in opposite sides of a plane, line or point 10. Asymmetry – when garden features are not symmetrical 11. Variety – diversity of design qualities in a composition
