 What is landscape architecture?
“Landscape architecture is the work of making specific kinds of places
outdoors. It could be designing a town square or a playground—even a
whole city.” [1]

“Landscape architecture is dedicated to the design of healthy

environments and communities, and to protecting the health, safety,
and welfare of people.” [1]

“Landscape architecture encompasses the analysis, planning, design,

management, and stewardship of the natural and built environment
through science and design.” [2]

“Landscape architecture is, quite simply, the design and construction

of outdoor spaces. This can include things like garden architecture,
but it can also include the design and development of green zones in
cities, public parks, hiking trails, campuses, and plazas.” [3]

“Landscape architecture lies at the intersection of personal and

collective experiences of nature; it addresses the material and
historical aspects of landscape even as it explores nature’s more
poetic, even mythological, associations.” [4]

SITE PLAN: Building
• The building is
designed to
blend seamlessly
into the existing
topography,
respecting the
natural contours
of the land. This
careful
integration
minimizes
disruption to the
landscape and
enhances the
building’s
connection to its
environment.

• The undulating
roof design is
FLOOR PLAN: inspired by the
surrounding hills
and mountains,
branding the
building as a
campus
landmark. The
roof also serves
a primary and
essential role in
passive solar
design.
Perforated
overhangs
shade the
exterior glass,
reduce thermal
loads and glare,
and maximize
good quality
daylight. Other
passive and
mechanical
sustainable
strategies serve
to optimize visual

comfort,
operational
flexibility and
aesthetic
sensitivity. It is
LEED Platinum
certified.

 FLOOR PLAN: Hampi Art Labs
• The building’s
form is inspired by
the flow of both
water and the
way that visitors
are supposed to
move through it.

• The Hampi Art

Lab hopes to
foster creative
thinking by
creating a
space where
collaboration
and
experimentation
are possible.
Located on a 5-
acre site in
Karnataka’s city
SITE VIEW: of Vijayanagar,
Hampi Art Lab is
inspired by the
riverine
landscape of
the
Tungabhadra
and her gentle
sculpting of the
surrounding hills;
the project is
rooted in a
central ‘space
of flows’ through
which people
access the
property. On
either side of this
lies a hill-scape
of various
amenities
available at the
residency.

Hampi Art Labs
• The site and its
surrounding
environment strive
to be an
inspiration to
visitors and artists.
The buildings are
designed to have
SECTION 1-1 accessible roofs,
so visitors have
access to both a
landscape on the
ground as well as
a green roof,
which serve as
backgrounds for
installation pieces
across the
campus.

SECTION 1-1 • The landscape

design echoes
this material
approach with
paths of
stabilized
pebbles,
recycled stone
mosaics, and
local planting
from the region.
