Course Objectives:	The aim of this course is twofold. Firstly, to introduce architecture students with contemporary design of natural environments, its theoretical/conceptual backgrounds. Second, to raise awareness of the students about different approaches to man-made natural environments in different cultures through architectural history.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
- Understanding of the relationship between human behavior, the natural environment and the design of the built environment.
- Ability to design projects that optimize, conserve, or reuse natural and built resources, provide healthful environments for occupants/users, and reduce the environmental impacts of building construction and operations on future generations through means such as carbon-neutral design, bioclimatic design, and energy efficiency.
- Ability to respond to site characteristics such as soil, topography, vegetation, and watershed in the development of a project design.

Course Content

The importance of man-made natural environments on human life in architectural and urban scales; Design of man-made natural environments; Theories, concepts and elements of landscape design in relation to architectural history.
