Landscape Architecture is the design of outdoor areas, landmarks, and structures to achieve environmental, social-behavioral, or aesthetic outcomes. — Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe, Susan Jellicoe
The Landscape of Man: Shaping the Environment from Prehistory to the Present Day

Landscape Architects analyze, plan, design, manage, and nurture the built and natural environments. Landscape architects have a significant impact on communities and quality of life. They design parks, campuses, streetscapes, trails, plazas, and other projects that help define a community. “About Landscape Architecture”, ASLA.org
