Landscape Media II is part of the curriculum in the newly established Postgraduate Diploma in Landscape Architecture (PDLA) Program at the Division of Landscape Architecture at HKU.
The course explores the core practices of landscape representation, from analysis to fabrication, focusing on the understanding of representation and production. Shifting from site observation in an urban context to detail representation and digital and manual fabrication, it covers a variety of scales and modes. Over the course of two succeeding projects, students transform products of a site observation into design mock-ups and prototypes while creating an understanding of abstraction, rigor, transformation, and experimentation.
