This four-week studio-intensive course introduces the fundamental drafting skills needed to accurately document and communicate scaled site plans. Students will become familiar with essential tools and materials, including reference books, drafting supplies, media types, line weights, lettering styles, and how to read and use scale. Through live demonstrations and hands-on exercises, students will practice professional drawing techniques and begin drafting basic site plans while also exploring the art of map-making. In the second half of the course, the focus will shift to developing a personalized landscape graphics palette — learning how to illustrate trees, shrubs, perennials, and groundcovers, along with hardscape elements like stone terraces.
