“Mindful approach of restrained balanced with brave, simple choices.”
GNN DesignA quick dive into the designing world
After reading “GGN Landscapes” by Thaisa Way, I came to understand the importance of developing a deep Site analysis. For these group of Landscape architects – GGN Designers – their fi rst priority is to investigate the site and cre-ate a strong relationship with the client and its future users. There are many ways to do it; by seeing what is visible or invisible, or in a deeper meaning; looking for the poetry of the site – its mysteries, its fi ctions, and its facts. As the designer starts developing knowledge, the landscape architect starts to come up with a concept framing the design plan. Even as details and systems are build, the design concept and its intensions are sustained. This investigation into the history and narratives of a site arc at the he art of GGN’s de sign pro-cess, framing a response to a project’s goals, challenges, and eventual manifestation. Drawing on all the various forms of investigations, GGN de-signers develop their de sign concepts that will shape the land and topography. It is this shaping of the ground that so often defi nes a GGN lands ca pe. To this day, these designers’ work realizes the power of “whoever draws it fi rst owns it.” This forces the designer to jump in, dig deep, and take responsi-bility for the design, from its conception to its fi nal details as built. And they use the power of art as a mean to think, being beautiful rendering pieces, or doodles at the start of the de-signing process. Their drawing and design were always res-onating a beautiful phrase “Mindful approach of restrained balanced with brave, simple choices.”
The most Complex ArtBurle Marx, Garden Design
Burle Marx call Garden Design, “the most complex art” because it is a practice that is trying to achieve a lot within a space. “It is for the landscape architect to try and prevent the destruction of the natural environment,” (Marx, 118) the job of a landscape architect is to not only create new landscapes that resonates the old ones, but to maintain the existing lands as well establishing an artistic legacy to those who will come after us. To do this one has to take into consideration multiple vari-ables that will show what you are trying to achieve, in a garden there needs to be an order emphasized by what it is trying to achieved. It should be looked as a piece of art, or music, and it has to be composed by the rules and the reasons for what it was built. Taking into consideration light and plant textures; the differ-ent textures of plants might become disturbing if not balanced, and a landscape architect should always understand the im-portance of harmony that plant communities can bring. There-fore, the relation of textures becomes essential and complex, one must understand that “a plant is a form, a color, a texture, a scent, a living being with needs and preferences, with a per-sonality of its own” (Burle, 116). But the most complicated of all is the balance of color, the successful use of color will follow itself throughout a design; a color is never isolated, never alone. There will always be a dominant color, and within that color it will be approached by gradations in tone; it will appear as the summit of a tonal sequence. In the end, one must work, with imagina-tion and intuition and, above all, with love.
Burle Marx once said “The function of the landscape architect today is to make known the part a garden has to play in the cit-ies of our lives.” (Burle, 120). Resolving the problems of today with poetic meaning, in todays time we are in need of regenerating our planet. The human race has been destroying the planet and it has been exponentially increasing. As a landscape architect one should start to put more emphasize on the idea of regener-ating what we have been damaging and putting it as a priority and then focus on its aesthetics.
