What is the role of landscape architecture in architecture studio projects?

Landscape architecture plays an integral role in architecture studio projects. It allows the architects to integrate natural elements such as trees, plants, water bodies, and terrain into the overall design of the project site. Landscape architecture also ensures that outdoor spaces are functional, sustainable, and aesthetically pleasing while meeting the client's needs and budgetary constraints.

In addition, landscape architecture helps to address ecological and environmental concerns as it takes into account the site's natural features and seeks to enhance them. For example, using rainwater collection systems, promoting biodiversity, and mitigating stormwater runoff. Collaboration between architects and landscape architects in the studio creates a cohesive and holistic approach to design, ensuring that the built environment integrates seamlessly with the natural surroundings.
