Sustainability plays a significant role in landscape architecture as it aims to create spaces that are environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable. Landscape architects design outdoor spaces that promote ecological balance, conserve natural resources, and mitigate the impact of human activities on the environment. The use of sustainable materials and practices in construction and maintenance is an important aspect of sustainable landscape design. This includes the use of recycled materials, native plant species, rainwater harvesting systems, and renewable energy sources. The ultimate goal of sustainable landscape architecture is to create spaces that are functional, aesthetically pleasing, and environmentally responsible, enhancing the quality of life for both humans and the natural environment.
