The document discusses the key steps in the landscape design process, beginning with site analysis. Site analysis involves developing a base plan by analyzing the physical features of the site like property boundaries, contours, vegetation, environmental factors like sun, wind, and water movement. It also involves analyzing geographical factors such as noise levels, soil types, existing plants, utilities, and wildlife. The goal of site analysis is to gain a thorough understanding of the site to inform the overall landscape design.
Landscape Architecture is the art and science of
planning and design of out door open spaces, to meet
the physical, economic and socio-behavioral needs of
the users, respecting and in harmony with the existing
contextual natural and man made environments.
A detailed study of Chinese Gardens with reference to concept, geography, design philosophy, characteristics, elements, and symbolism. Also, includes the two classifications, i.e., Imperial Style and Scholarly Style, with examples such as Shanglin Garden, Ganquan Garden, Yuanming Garden, Beihai Garden, the Humble Administrator's Garden, and the Summer Palace.

Today, in many parts of Japan and the western parts of the world the traditions of Japanese garden art are still maintained. The intensity of expression, continue to inspire many artists that aspire to create a personal Japanese garden of their own. They are popularly known as zen gardens.
Spatial organisation is all about creating space through land form, built elements & Trees. The essence of landscape lies in the creation of quality space in temporal scale.

Introduction to Site Planning. These slides should be able to provide urban planners a simple guide to factors and issues to consider in planning a a site. These slides were prepared for urban design class for masters students in Makerere University Kampala ( Uganda)
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
WRI’s brand new “Food Service Playbook for Promoting Sustainable Food Choices” gives food service operators the very latest strategies for creating dining environments that empower consumers to choose sustainable, plant-rich dishes. This research builds off our first guide for food service, now with industry experience and insights from nearly 350 academic trials.

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
2. “The Process is a sequence of steps to reach the
goals of the design”.
There are main steps in landscape design process.
1. Site analysis.
2. User’s Needs.
3. Functional Diagram.
4. Form composition.

complex topic or
substance into

5. • Determine what already exists on the site, draw and
put the dimension of them on base plan.
1. Analyze the site and develop a base plan :
6. • Developing a base plan:
• Locate property boundaries .
• Indicate existing roads.
• Indicate contour lines.
• Indicates existing structures
and plants.
• Indicate North Direction

plan of the site
Base Plan shows contour lines, property lines, existing structures,
roads, and existed vegetation.
8. • Note environmental factors,
such as sun path, wind
direction, soil characteristics.
• Water direction.
• Locate views (good and bad)
and determine if they need to
be screened or framed.
• Locate position of existing
utilities such as above ground
power, underground gas,
water, and sewer pipes.

• Sun during different times and seasons:
• The way the sun affects the site throughout the seasons will greatly
influence the overall design.
Environmental Factors:
1. Analyze the site and develop a base plan :
10. By knowing the direction of the sun at different times of the year, you can
determine where trees will be needed to provide shade in the summer and
where you will need open areas to allow the winter sun's rays to heat the
site and outdoor activities areas.

• water availability is a very important factor in
selecting plants.
• For dry areas, redirected rain water from
sidewalks, gutters or foundation drains may
help, though drought tolerant plants may be the
best solution “wet feet.”

Geographical Factors:
• The site may be composed of one or
more types of soil.
• Knowing the types of soil existed in
the site is very important for
landscape design
• Each type of soil has its own
characteristics and is suitable for
specific species of plants.

1. The site analysis should include an
inventory of existing plants.
2. Existing trees can provide shade and
protection until the new plants grow.
3. A large, established shade tree is valuable
and should be protected during construction or
landscape work.
4. Hazardous trees or those in poor health,
whether from construction damage, insects or
disease, should have a professional care.
All of this information will help to make
important decisions about which plants to keep
and which ones to remove to make way for the
new landscape.
