I chose this particular project, not because of the design but due to the rendering style. It showcases creativity and in my opinion, the creativity of the new era of landscape architecture. The discipline is slowly moving forward and rendering, despite how much I prefer hand drawn visualizations, the new way is through digital communication. The use of bright colours and images that contrast against the natural background do not represent the realism of the landscape. I believe that is often too very easy to communicate, instead these designs portray the mood and atmosphere of the landscape which is harder to do with drawings, it gives it a sense of 4D.

 

I believe this is one of the new ways forward as landscape architects, to work with the new styles and not against it.
