Civil constructions are built with specific allowable density depending on the general planning of the area. If a building has a high construction density, the landscape will have less space. Conversely, the land area dedicated to landscaping will be larger. The landscape of a project may sometimes be just a simple, flat grass lawn, but other times it can be a beautifully designed, high-budget decorative landscape. This depends on several factors:
Type of Construction: Every building requires landscaping, but it must be appropriate and meaningful for its purpose. For example, the landscape of a high school cannot be invested in the same way as that of a resort or a garden restaurant.
Investment and Maintenance Costs: A relatively perfect landscape requires significant investment, from design and construction to ongoing maintenance.
Investor’s Preference: Preferences vary widely among individuals. Within a financial limit, some prefer to invest more in interior design, while others prioritize landscaping, reducing interior expenses.
Climate Conditions: Landscaping should be at least somewhat adapted to the local climate to minimize maintenance costs.
Status and Prestige: Whether or not there is a specific standard for ranking or status, a project with a meticulously designed and executed landscape will undoubtedly be rated higher by visitors compared to one with poorly planned or haphazard landscaping.
