Routes of landscape design is a journey of knowing about some of the various routes for designing imaginative landscapes. Different approaches are used in the overall studio course, each focussing on a conceptual idea of design. This process of designing mainly aims at leaving behind all the usual baggage of basic design norms and having the freedom to design based on experiences and imagination. Haiku used as a design alternative allows for expressing the spatial qualities and the imaginations abstractly. The final design project concentrates on experiencing and enhancing the built and the unbuilt thresholds through a strong concept of segregating the two based on materials and design language.
