Julie Jebens Bakke has successfully completed her Master’s study in Landscape Architecture, titled "Visualizations for Sustainable Landscape Design." Julie's research explores the critical role of visualization in promoting sustainable landscape design, an increasingly important aspect in addressing global environmental challenges
Julie’s research emphasizes the role of visualization as a communication tool in promoting sustainable practices. By examining the literature and conducting interviews with industry professionals, she identified key factors and techniques that enhance the visualization of sustainable landscape designs. Her findings highlight the importance of considering the purpose, project phase, and target audience when choosing visualization methods.
In her study, Julie explored various tools such as renderings, diagrams, 3D models, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), photos, and manipulated photos. She also investigated the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI), though it remains an emerging technology in the field.
One of the significant revelations from her research is the lack of a standardized definition for sustainable landscape design, underscoring the necessity for further exploration and establishment of comprehensive principles in this area.
Julie's work not only contributes valuable insights to the field but also sets a foundation for future research, particularly in defining sustainable landscape design and integrating AI technologies. Congratulations to Julie Jebens Bakke for her work and contribution to sustainable landscape architecture!
