A good book on landscape sketch and graphic
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This book covers almost every aspect of landscape sketch and graphic. It is good for you if you want to learn hand sketch, it is also good for you if you want to create nice CAD drawings. Many of the tree /shrub symbols in both plan views and elevation views are nicely done, they can inspire you to create nice computer blocks for trees and shrubs for plans and sections and elevations. It covers graphic language and design process, basic drafting, lettering (nowadays almost everyone can do nice hand lettering fonts with computer, but this book is still good for assisting you to select lettering fonts or create your custom fonts in computer), freehand drawings and conceptual diagrams, presentation plans, section-elevations, graphic symbols files for elevations and perspectives. All the sketches, plans, sections, elevations and perspectives are nicely done. They can be good samples for landscape architecture students, garden design students, architects, landscape architects, urban planners, and seasoned designers.

Landscape Graphics Plan, Section, and Perspective Drawing of Landscape Spaces
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Excellent resource for learning how to draw trees, vegetation and other elements for architectural presentation drawings. Many of the drawings can be photocopied and pasted on your own drawings and the author encourages you to do so if you are sketch-ability-deficient. Very good value.
Outstanding for a Beginning Landscape Designer
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
A beginning landscape designer, or one who may be self-taught, will find this book to provide invaluable assistance in using scales properly; applying graphic designs in the most representative way and using the plan, section and perspective views in the most effective and professional ways and at the most appropriate times. I am using it as a required text in a Master of Landscape Architecture course.
Wow! What a great book, and working tool for the desiger.

Loved this book. I am a self-taught landscape designer. This book brings home to me one of the reasons I am self-taught. I am one of those people that learn better when left alone with a good instruction manual. This is one of those books that gets right to the point and covers just about everything. It's packed with page after page of graphics, and just enough text to explain what is not obvious. And for 15.95, such a deal!
An Excellent Resource Book for All.

This is an excellent book to refer to as a student of Landscape Architecture. Includes starting with Concept Plans, Design stages, right through to finished rendering techniques and more. I 100% recommended this Publication.
