Step 1: Questions for Consideration
Provide one or two landscape architecture industry (and related industries) profiles from a
variety of information sources
Urban landscaping: it involves beatification of a given urban centre. It does not include
planning as per see, but it requires the erection of structures and planting of trees to improve the
aesthetic aspect of that particular town. It may involve erecting parks with its structures and
trees, roundabouts, walking pavements and trees along them, and bus terminals and its structures
(Knox 182).
Identify “trade associations” that offer information on the landscape architecture
“industry.”
• Association of Professional Landscape Designers
• American Society of landscape architects
• Landscape and Nursery associations
Describe some practice models within the industry. How do they operate?

Data Drive Design modelling; it utilises the available data to develop a given
architectural plan. Data, in this case, is superior to any prior knowledge in design and determines
the outcome of the landscape structure (BERLING‐WOLFF, Sheryl, and Jianguo 120).
BIM Modelling: in this type of design practice the data is subordinate to the process of
designing the given landscaping structure. It employs the use of graphics to develop an
imaginary structure through the application of computation design activities. It provides both the
two dimensional and three-dimensional view of the landscape architectural designs (BERLING‐
WOLFF, Sheryl, and Jianguo 119).
Inclusive design practice: it allows the landscape architects to make designs with spaces
for gathering, recreation and play. With the increasing population, this practice accommodates
