What is Landscape Architecture?


The fundamental practice of landscape architecture involves keeping the public safe from hazards, protecting natural resources, and sustainably designing the natural and built environment in our communities. The public interest is best served when qualified professionals carry out these responsibilities.

Landscape architects create well-planned livable communities, leading the way in initiatives such as neighborhood master plans, designing green streets, managing stormwater runoff, and planning cutting-edge transportation corridors.
