Landscape Projects and Applications

Forest Landscape Implementation Projects aim to carry out ecological, aesthetic, and functional arrangements while preserving the natural structure. These types of projects are particularly applied in forest parks, recreational areas, walking trails, and similar zones. Below is the process of preparing a forest landscape implementation project in its main stages:

1. Site Analysis and Data Collection

Natural Structure Analysis:

Soil structure, slope, drainage, water resources, climate, existing vegetation

Human Use:

Walking trails, picnic areas, camping spots, scenic viewpoints

Protected Areas:

Endemic species, wildlife corridors, aquatic habitats

2. Determining Landscape Design Principles

Ecological Balance Preservation:

Applications that do not harm existing vegetation


Use of Natural Materials:

Local materials such as wood, stone, natural fencing


Functionality:

Meeting needs such as rest areas, directional signage, walking routes

Aesthetics:

Harmony of color, texture, and form in line with nature

3. Design and Project Planning

Master Plan (Scale 1/500 – 1/1000):

Displays overall land use decisions

Implementation Project (Scale 1/200 – 1/500):

Details planting plans, hardscapes, walking paths, seating areas

Sections and Elevations (Scale 1/50 – 1/100):

Cross-sections and details of pedestrian paths, seating units, signs


Planting Plan:

Layout using local, forest-appropriate plant species

4. Implementation Phase

Infrastructure Works:

Irrigation lines, walking trails, drainage

Hardscape Applications:

Wooden platforms, stone paths, seating structures

Planting:
Support with local forest vegetation (if needed)

Erosion Control and Soil Conservation

5. Maintenance and Sustainability
Seasonal maintenance (pruning, cleaning, material repair)
Supporting the natural process with seeding or seedlings
Visitor information (directional and warning signs)
