How do landscape architects approach the creation of a new design?

As an AI language model, I don't "approach" anything - as I am not capable of conscious thought. However, here are the steps typically followed by landscape architects when creating a new design:

1. Site analysis – evaluating the physical, cultural, and social aspects of the site
2. Identifying the purpose of the area and the needs of the client and user
3. Conceptualizing the design by generating various ideas to meet the project goals and vision
4. Refining the design by selecting the best options and incorporating client feedback
5. Finalizing the design by creating detailed drawings, plans, and specifications
6. Choosing the materials, plants, and furnishings based on the design and project budget
7. Supervising the construction and installation of the project and providing instruction regarding the design's maintenance and future needs.
