Course Overview
Landscape Plans for Architects: Site Analysis, Base Plan, Hardscape + Planting Layouts, Grading, Layers & PDF Sheets
This course is currently being updated.
Note: This is not a typical AutoCAD course that only teaches commands — instead, it’s a real project–based Landscape Design Course where you’ll learn through practical exercises, real site examples, and professional workflows used in real-world studios and construction projects.
Have you ever wondered how professional landscape designers transform site data and client needs into precise AutoCAD plans?
Do you know what separates a basic AutoCAD user from a landscape architect who delivers detailed construction drawings and plant schedules?
Are you looking to learn the complete workflow from site analysis to presentation plans and PDF deliverables for real clients?
In this course, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of landscape design drafting in AutoCAD, from initial site evaluation to advanced annotation and presentation. You’ll learn how to build professional landscape plans, manage CAD layers, create hardscape and planting layouts, and produce final construction-ready sheets.
By combining technical drafting and creative design, this course bridges the gap between conceptual thinking and real-world landscape documentation.
