Here’s what I learn…
Theoritically, in GENERAL, landscape architecture has 3 main aspect:
1. Landscape planning… Person: Landscape planner or landscape architect
– This considered as the one who got the idea and concept. Many people call this as landscape architect…
2. Landscape design… Person: Landscape designer or drafter…
– This considered as the detail of landscape planning. Their work is so much with detail drawing and bill of quantities… They’re the one who create the posters and presentation…
PS: number 1 & 2 could be at the same person
3. Landscape management… Person: Landscape manager…
– This is the different one… They work is calculating the management plan, maintaining garden/park.
And, at practical world, landscape architecture has 4 main subject industry:
1. Landscape planner/designer… They’re the one who give the drawing… We may call it landscape architect…
2. Landscape contractor… Who made the drawing from landscape planner/designer become real…
3. Landscape nursery… Who got the stock of plant…
4. Landscape manager… Who working with the maintenance and management of landscape…
But, as long as we working with function and aestetics, as long as we keep the earth in good shape,
in GENERAL, we are all landscape architect.
