client’s needs.
 Obtain site plans and
survey plans from
architects and land
surveyors.

2. Conceptual Plan
 Landscape architects start
to prepare conceptual
design for the clients
after consulting them.
 Sometimes, a Master plan
may be created and
needed if the site is too
large.

A Landscape
architect needs
to prepare:

9. 1. SITE ANALYSIS
To prepare Site Analysis, a
Landscape Architect needs to
complete:
 Site survey
 Vegetation survey
 Soil survey
 Environmental studies and
reports
This stage involves:
 Research
 Analysis
 Synthesis

11. 2. CONCEPTUAL PLAN
 A plan to show the design that
suites the site conditions and meet
the client’s requirements.
 May consist of Softscape and
Hardscape elements.
 Includes structures, pavements,
planting and other features as
needed.
 Provides a plan, 3-D illustrations and
graphics to illustrate all the
elements proposed for the projects.

13. 3. SECTIONS AND
ELEVATION
DRAWINGS
 To provide sections and
elevation to show the
height, depth and
elevations of the design.

15. 4. RENDERINGS
OR PERSPECTIVES
 Either in Sketch or in
a 3-D Rendering such
as Sketchup and 3-D
studio max or manual
sketches.
 Client gets to
visualized the realistic
look in the final
product.

17. DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
 After client’s approval on
schematic design, develop
further on design.

 Consist of scaled
plans showing the
materials and
specifications for
