Abstract

The idea of formlessness in landscape architecture is defined as dynamic processes, such as wind blowing and plant growth. These are not things you associate with a given form, but a fluid and dynamic process. Specifically, this thesis looks to create a dialogue between the landscape architect and these dynamic processes to shape space over time.
