What Is A Landscape Design

A landscape design or plan is an illustration that arranges natural and man-made elements in an outdoor space to create a visual representation of how the area could be developed. It includes overlays showing designs for irrigation, lighting, and materials while considering land uses, environmental protection, and aesthetics. The plan aids decision making and acts as a reference for installations, repairs, and events in residential gardens, businesses, communities, and urban areas.
