Features: This book compiles selected works from OYAF Landscape Architecture Firm over the past five years in mainland China. Organized around landscape projects with various themes, it showcases the design process and methodologies through numerous detailed sketches and hand-drawn renderings, supplemented by real-site photographs for comparison. As a design firm at the forefront of landscape design in China, OYAF's album provides a rare opportunity for landscape designers and professionals in related fields to learn and draw inspiration. As one of the earliest foreign design firms to enter the mainland market, the book proposes and summarizes its understanding and concepts of Chinese landscape in practice. It introduces the "Whole-Process" design philosophy and the "L.E.A.D" design concept, as well as the goal of exploring and creating humanistic landscape works that are both modern and locally rooted. The book is divided into two volumes. The first volume summarizes OYAF's most representative landscape design masterpieces and concepts in recent years, while the second volume features OYAF's planning and urban design works.
