Landscape Characteristic Research based on Culture

The Landscape Planning and Design research teams work on a variety of topics related to the built environment. We focus on understanding how the landscape affects human health and well-being, how our built landscapes can be more resilient to change, and how to design more sustainable and equitable communities. Our research helps to inform planning and design practice, policy, and education, with the goal of creating healthier, more livable, and more just cities and regions.
