![]() ![]() Documentation refers to those drawings, images, models and narrative elements produced and organized sequentially to convey design intent and construction requirements. This publication is intended to focus on the all-encompassing role of documentation in landscape architectural design and construction processes. Strong theoretical ideas can result in exceptional built outcomes only if these ideas can be effectively translated into well-executed construction documents. ![]() The profession must be committed to continually improving the processes by which it designs, documents and constructs landscapes. This publication provides an important tool in improving the quality of built work, thereby elevating the stature of our profession. It has been field-tested in landscape architecture offices on a variety of national and international projects for over a decade, used as part of course materials at universities, and focuses not just on technical aspects of documentation but also on how documentation relates to the design process. This book is the first comprehensive publication of its kind in the profession. This publication explicitly strengthens the relationships between design, documentation and built outcomes, and bridges the training gap between academia and the profession. In order to respond to these challenges, theory and practice must be well integrated, suggesting a critical need for effective translational relationships between theory and implementation. Landscape architecture is well positioned to address the most fundamental challenges faced by communities, cities and nations. ![]()
