 Basic Landscape Graphics October 9, 2008
This book need to be developed as all of the examples are very basic and boring.I am a professional Landscape Architects and I have 10 years experience. I really believe that this book does not present any important information for its users.
 My students call this their "bible" (beware, used buyers!) August 12, 2008
Over the last ten years, I've recommended several landscape graphics texts to my students, and this is the one they repeatedly tell me they like. It provides a good mixture of how-to instructions and a wide variety of examples--diagrams, plans, sections, elevations and perspectives. Color rendering is not covered (I use Michael Doyle's book, but I'm sure there are other good ones).
***Students purchasing a used copy of this should check the publication date. The older version (1987) has some amusing and alarming examples--use with caution!***

Excellent first year planning studio text book; excellent sketches and explanations, clear and comprehensive diagrams and text
Good shape fast delivery February 8, 2008
Though the book was published in 2002, the graphics may seem a bit dated in our digital age, but the book is an excellent source of skills and design treatments needed in landscape design. Lettering and symbols are very helpful. The book is consistent with college level instruction and is recommended reading.

a must have December 14, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is an absolute must-have for the beginning landscape designer/architect's personal library. As a fifth year landscape architecture student, my book is in wretched condition due to the fact that I refer to it constantly, more than any other book I own. It will continue to be useful to me for years to come.
