This course will investigate movement through public and residential landscapes by focusing on circulation that is simultaneously intuitive and experiential. Students will explore the design of pedestrian and vehicular pathways, the management of intersections and nodes, and the sequencing of outdoor rooms. Emphasis will be placed on designing circulation with topography, views, programmatic needs, and spatial hierarchy to create seamless transitions and moments of pause and discovery. Students in this course will learn to identify circulation that is not just functional, but a core element of the landscape experience.
Central to the course is the study of precedent examples drawn from a range of historical and contemporary landscapes. These examples will serve as the foundation for understanding how designers approach designing site circulation. By examining these precedents in depth, students will reinforce a vocabulary of circulation principles and develop techniques for interpreting and evaluating site circulation with clarity.
