Often landscape design is correlated with sustainability. Landscapes connect humans directly to natural systems, while providing a setting for different kinds of uses. At the same time, it’s important to ensure that the landscape itself preserve the local ecology, hydrology and biodiversity. For that, landscapes must be viewed as more than just an aesthetic add-on.
This course will introduce you to sustainable landscape design and prepare you to distinguish between favorable and unfavorable landscape practices. Further, you’ll learn how these strategies can be leveraged to optimize green building performance. It also highlights the various landscape design strategies covered in Global Sustainability Assessment System (GSAS) Design and Build rating.
