How does the natural landscape reinforce the built lansdscape? 2. Do you think a balance of natural and built landscape can enhance your perception of a given place? 3. Analyse and compare these examples with the experience you gained in the site visit with Victoria Farrow.
In building the form can follow the landscape. My first precedence is the Garden of Cosmic speculation by Charles Jencks which is an example of contemporary architecture. The form of the natural landscape serves as a tool for the built landscape. It follow the basic shape of the natural landscape but in a rigid format. It was designed using modern physics to intertwine with the landscape. In his sign, he built around the landscape of the natural environment. Even the walkways are hilly. Emulating the natural landscape.
"The Garden of Cosmic Speculation is no longer a dialogue with the universe, it is a monologue about the universe. It is becoming The Garden of Comic Extrapolation, and someone needs to say it" Mark Arnalds.

My second precedence is the Varsailles Garden and palace. The varsilles garden is on a flat landscape. Th trees found in its surroundings are related to the built landscapes trees. Unlike the garden of cosmic speculation which is on a more hilly region, This is on a flats landscapes and has its walk ways flat also.
it had parterres, buildings on axes, focal points within gardens which integrated with the landscape.

If there is a balance between the natural and built environment it gives a symmetric environment that fits more into its context. It gives a more natural feeling to the architecture. The built environment enhances the effect of the experience of the site. The landscaping helps you have a full experience of the site. As seen in image below, the bridge accords the water helps you to be engaged with the water as you pass through the site.
The lumsdale site has a lot of rocks, and hills. This makes the landscape architecture harder to design. I decided to use a mired environment for my building and its landscape working with the natural format of the landscape.
