A landscape architect is a professional who designs outdoor spaces such as parks, gardens, campuses, and public spaces. They use a combination of art, science, and technical knowledge to create functional, sustainable, and aesthetically pleasing landscapes that meet the needs of their clients, users, and the environment. They work with a variety of elements such as plants, water features, landforms, structures, and lighting to create outdoor spaces that enhance the natural beauty of the site and promote human well-being. Landscape architects may work on projects ranging from small residential gardens to large urban parks and may collaborate with architects, engineers, planners, and other professionals to bring their designs to life.
