For a hundred years, pencil, pen, markers, and watercolor have

been the principal tools of representation for landscape architects

and urban planners. Today, those hand-powered aids have been

replaced by computers and Computer-aided design(CAD). Digital

Drawing for Landscape Architects bridges the gap between the

traditional analog and the new digital tools and shows you how to

apply timeless concepts of representation to enhance your design

work in digital media.

Building on the tried-and-true principles of analog representation,

Digital Drawing for Landscape Architectureexplores specific

techniques for creating landscape design digitally. It explains the

similarities and differences between analog and digital rendering,

and then walks you through the steps of creating digitally rendered

plans, perspectives, and diagrams. You’ll explore:

Computing Basics

Raster and vector images

Setting up the document

Base imagery and scaling

Hand-drawn linework and diagrams

Text, leaders, and page layout

Color, shading, and textures

Creating a section elevation

Perspective drawing

Techniques for using the newest versions of Adobe Illustrator,

Photoshop, and Acrobat as well as older versions

With more than 500 full-color drawings and photographs alongside

proven techniques, Digital Drawing for Landscape Architects will

help you enhance your skills though a unique marriage of

contemporary methods with traditional rendering techniques.

Digital Drawing

is a sophisticated digital media book

focused primarily on creating photomontage images for site design.

This book, aims to be a software neutral and has a strong,

theory-based designer's point of view. This is the first landscape

architecture book available as an eBook, so the authors thoroughly

embrace modern communication tools while still holding to the

tried-and-true landscape architecture values of high-quality

graphic representation." (
