Landscape architects play a crucial role in the designing of public spaces as they have the expertise to create functional and visually appealing outdoor spaces. They work towards creating sustainable environments and focus on the ecological, cultural, social, and historical significance of the site. Landscape architects are responsible for creating accessible outdoor spaces that cater to the needs of the community, including people with disabilities. They consider factors such as safety, lighting, seating, shading, and materials used while designing public spaces. Additionally, they work closely with other professionals involved in the project, such as urban planners, architects, and civil engineers, to ensure a comprehensive design approach. Overall, landscape architects ensure public spaces are well planned, designed, and implemented for the benefit of the community.
