Plan Graphics for the Landscape Designer: with Section-Elevation and Computer Graphics 2nd Edition – PDF/EPUB Version Downloadable

Many landscape architects and designers embrace an artistic approach to design. Maintaining that loose, aesthetic appeal requires landscape-design students to not only master the essentials of design but also fundamental drawing skills. Tony Bertauski introduces aspiring designers to the techniques of drawing, leading them from no knowledge of the craft to a final plan drawing of professional quality. Throughout, he emphasizes that a drawn landscape plan has not only aesthetic value but also communicates effectively with clients. With step-by-step illustrations, readers will learn to: use drafting tools to set up drawings, letter professionally, draw symbols and textures to illustrate plants and hardscapes, label plan drawings accurately and draw to scale, develop section drawings to communicate vertical design elements, and enhance drawings using design software.
