Theoretical Frameworks 1 is an introductory course into the discourse of landscape architecture. We will explore how design ideas and theoretical developments have influenced - and continue to impact - historical and contemporary precedents that have shaped landscape architectural practice and debate over time.

The course will identify the diverse contexts in which these precedents emerged and consider how shifting cultural attitudes towards nature and society influence the meaning and design of landscapes.

In this course, you will learn how to read and critique landscape architectural projects through a range of research techniques, including reading, writing and drawing.
