Hi, and welcome back to the final section of this course. And in this one, we're going to be taking all of the information and knowledge that we've covered so far up to this point, and we're going to put it into practice and create something what we called the conceptual plan or the discussion document. So what is conceptual plan? And why is it so important? So the conceptual plan is probably the most difficult the most important plan that you're going to be doing for your project. Because you basically are taking all of the information from your site survey from the interview with a client, and also all the knowledge that you have about the site, the house, the environment, the topography, soil, all of that, and you're going to put it into place and create a conceptual plan.

And you're going to come to the client and say, here's my ideas. What do you think? So one, just not to finish up Planting plan and come up with specific materials. Well, the chances are that after you show the project, the conceptual plan to your client, there will be some changes. So the less specifics you have on the conceptual plan, the easier is going to be for you to change it afterwards. So for example, if you look at this conceptual plan, you can see all of the elements and planting, but none of it has been specified yet.

And by doing this, you keeping your client more engaged in the whole process, you given them the opportunity to give you feedback, you should be able to walk through and justify your decisions. So this is what we call the presentation board or a mood board. And all of this is setting your mood. You are putting your client in with you. And that's what we want to do with the conceptual plan. So that's what we're going to do in this section.

We're going to be looking at developing plans, planting graphics, and we're gonna learn how to To fill out your title block, and also how to color or hand render your plans. So we've done a lot of work by now let's actually start designing our scene. The next lesson.
