Description: This course will provide an introduction to landscape architecture through a survey of its history, and through direct application to a studio project. From the historic gardens at Versailles to the current Millennium Park in Chicago, the direct manipulation and design of land has a long and complex set of rules, traditions and practices. The focus will be on the consideration of how architecture extends beyond the interior and its relationship to an equally important external fabric. The course is comprised of interactive lectures on landscape themes, and the application of specific concepts imparted into design exercises. Cross-list: ARCH 607. Mutually Exclusive: Cannot register for ARCH 307 if student has credit for ARCH 607.
