    This book provides a visual and spatial framework for understanding the key elements that make up landscapes. It explores concepts like landscape fabric, spaces, paths, edges, foci, thresholds and details. The book uses clear illustrations and diagrams to explain how these basic forms come together to create an integrated landscape structure. It is intended as an introduction for students and a reference for experienced designers to develop strong visual-spatial thinking and awareness of landscape design principles.
