The Future of Landscape Architecture Industry Depends on the Future of Market Reform

Abstract

Through an analysis of the dilemmas facing landscape architecture industry in China, this paper proposes that the core criteria for evaluating the industrial level of landscape architecture is the optimal allocation of lands and other social public resources. Marketization reform will result in both enterprises and individual practitioners promoting a benign development of the industry. Already, increased industry standards have placed higher requirements on educational quality. Finally, with the help of market forces, positive interaction between landscape architecture industry and professional education can be achieved.
