009 CONTEXT, not concept

There are many exaggerated concepts around the landscape design.
But, the most important is the context. It would be fit for the site history/time, indigeneous elements.

Landscapes do not exist in isolation. Landscapes are nested within larger landscapes, that are nested within larger landscapes, and so on. In other words, each landscape has a context or regional setting, regardless of scale and how the landscape is defined. The landscape context may constrain processes operating within the landscape. Landscapes are “open” systems; energy, materials, and organisms move into and out of the landscape. This is especially true in practice, where landscapes are often somewhat arbitrarily delineated. That broad-scale processes act to constrain or influence finer-scale phenomena is one of the key principles of hierarchy theory (Allen and Star 1982) and ‘supply-side’ ecology (Roughgarden et al. 1987).
