Learn the AutoCAD LT Tools to Design Your Own Landscape Plan

Let’s face it - for most people, their landscaping strategy starts when they see a plant they like at the nursery and ends when they dig a hole in the ground. But those with Autodesk AutoCAD LT know that a quick drawing can transform a hodgepodge mess into a structured plan with beautiful results.
When designing a landscape, start by sketching the shape of the yard and using blocks to add existing trees, foliage, and brush. Then, sketch any architectural elements like gazebos or pools and natural elements like ponds.
Once your design is sketched out, use hatch patterns to represent different sections and materials like paving, mulch, grass, and more. Then, top off your gardenscape with decorations, paves, stones, and pathways using the Path Array tool.
