Target Audiences

  • This course has been written for anyone who wants to learn how to create presentation standard drawings that will communicate you designs in the clearest, most accurate and attractive way. You may be someone who wants to know how draw up and illustrate a design of your own garden, or someone who is interested in starting a career in garden design, or a student studying garden design or landscape architecture. Or you might be working as a garden contractor, a garden designer or a landscape architect. Or perhaps you are simply interested in learning some drawing and illustration techniques

This course will teach you all the essential drawing skills to enable you to develop and communicate your garden designs in a clear, professional and attractive way.

Most garden designers and landscape architects start their training using hand drawing techniques, and continue to use these skills, alongside digital applications, throughout their career to explore different design options and to present their completed designs.

This course starts with the standard guidelines on hand drawing and sketching, and progresses in gradual stages to more advanced skills of portraying garden designs in 3D. To begin with you will learn how to set up your drawing surface and practice the use of all the items of drawing equipment you will need for the rest of the course.

The course continues with lessons on how to use a scale rule and how to draw to scale, and then an introduction to the full range of symbols, line styles, patterns, shadow rendering and annotation techniques you will need to illustrate your garden designs and to develop your individual style of drawing and presentation.

Next the course covers how all these techniques are brought together to create professional, presentation-standard drawings of real-life garden designs, and this is followed by demonstrations on different ways of applying colour to garden plans.

Because the best way to develop drawing skills is through practice, this course includes 37 individual drawing exercises for you to complete in your own time. Demonstrations of the exercises are filmed from above a drawing board, and supported by downloads of instructions, templates and base plans

The presentation of this course also comprises more than 70 slides to accompany a commentary on drawing techniques. The slides display images, sketches, photos and illustrations along with bullet points summarising the main points of the commentary. The bullet points are a useful reminder if you need to look back over the main features of the course. The slides also include numerous examples of illustrated plans and drawings which demonstrate the standard of drawing and presentation you will be able to achieve by the end of this course,

You can take this course either on its own or as part of ‘The Complete Garden Design Course’ series of courses which will give you a thorough grounding in the art of garden design. After completing this series of courses, you will have learnt all the skills you will need to confidently undertake your own garden design projects.
