CDP Directed Study Guidelines

Preparation for week 2:

Theory can evolve from empirical observation and practical experience, as well as critical engagement.

How do we locate 'Meaning' in Landscape? How can meaning change across, time and space?

"On what shall we base our forms? Where shall we find them? And the answer is, in the world which is around you in space and behind you in time." (Eckbo, 1950 cited in Swaffield)

How do these statements resonate with you? Bring thoughts and examples.

The reading  Theory in Landscape Architecture (2002) Swaffield, S. Ed. really helped go over these issues.
