| dc.description.abstract | This study examines three design process issues consequential to occupied residential historic landscapes: (a) how a historic landscape could be modified to meet the needs of a modern family, (b) how the history of a landscape can influence the design of a new master plan, and (c) how significant changes to a landscape are incorporated while maintaining historic character and integrity. A single historic estate was analyzed using historic archives, photographs, site and building plans, and site measurements and observations. In addition, current homeowners were interviewed and surveyed. Based on this data, the researcher followed a formalized design process that included an inventory, site analysis, functional analysis, two-dimensional conceptual designs, and three-dimensional representations of specific design concepts. Results, including a master conceptual design, suggest a more holistic approach to designing occupied residential landscapes of historic value. | en_US |
