Academic Landscape Learning Path

This learning path explores the core elements of Vectorworks Landmark and the key design processes that will guide your creative flow. Each section builds your confidence step by step, introducing drawing setup and scale fundamentals, conceptual site composition, hardscape and planting techniques, annotation and presentation tools, and practical examples that connect design theory with real-world practice.

Learning Objectives

Set up and organize precise, correctly scaled drawings — configuring page and sheet settings, verifying margins, scaling imported base plans, and controlling classes, lineweights, line types, fills, and hatches to keep files consistent and legible.
Develop landscape designs from concept to buildable geometry — establishing lines of force to compose site forms, then modeling those forms as hardscapes, landscape areas, and planting using Vectorworks Landmark tools, styles, and Renderworks textures.
Document and present a design professionally — annotating drawings with text styles, data tags, and dimensions, and assembling sheet layer viewports with drawing labels, north arrows, and graphic scales for coordinated output.
