DRAWING FOR LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS 2 CONSTRUCTION...

In recent years  perspective views have swept into the foreground in the field of landscape
architecture. They have become the showpiece of any new design project  frequently
overshadowing the plan as the principal graphic mediator of ideas. This manual examines the
history of these multifaceted images  their power to shape our expectations and thinking  and 
naturally  how to create them. Perspectives communicate planned spaces quite unlike any other
ortho graphic architectural projections  easily connecting with human modes of vision and
perception. Yet we have become so accustomed to seeing them that we no longer examine their
messages. Moving chronologically from the Renaissance to the present day  the book charts their
evolution and dissects the motives behind their construction  while providing practical advice
on how to compose elucidatory and persuasive imagery. > Introduction to terminology: Basics and
principles > Constructing a perspective > Transmitting the message: Landscape as a medium for
ideas > Enduring themes  such as beauty and the sublime > The future potential of perspective
