Academia
Attention Teachers and Students!
There is so much to learn in this generalist profession… Sometimes a lifetime of knowledge. In a way, we are all students of landscape architecture.
But certain things shouldn’t be so hard to learn. And we need to start making bandwidth for the new and important topics in design (like Climate, Equity, Accessibility, Ecology, Computational Design, etc. AMIRIGHT?!)
So let’s start making room!
Why do I have to learn this?
Two big reasons
Land Kit can help make certain tasks:
Easier to perform key landscape tasks
Easier to understand key landscape concepts
Imagine tasks like grading design, ecological planting, paving documentation, or carbon calculation becoming more intuitive to understand and ultimately integrated with ambitious concepts that students want to explore.
Okay, there are actually more than two reasons to learn how to use these tools.
Rhino and Grasshopper are super hot right now
This is the first day of the rest of your life (Meaning: start learning it now to get the greatest benefit over time; don’t wait).
Free Lab Licenses
Also, each school can get a 30-seat Lab License that renews each year for free.
Here are the rules:
Each school receives one free Lab License (30 seats), upon approval by the LANDAU team. Please inquire with any LANDAU representative about purchasing additional seats.
Each School will receive a fresh key annually. And the old one will expire.
Please do not share the key outside of the educational institution. Key may be shared with individual students, though.
You do not need to be in the IT department to be your school's representative. IT OR faculty may be the school representative. But there is only one representative per institution. If you are the representative, we will forward new Lab License requests associated with the institution to the existing representative.
Lab License keys and Lab license key activity is only meant for educational purposes (active students, teaching, and active research associated with the educational institution.)
We reserve the right to remove access for institutions that don't follow the rules.

Who has the time to teach this?
Land Kit Workflows and Campus make learning and teaching these concepts and tools much easier. There might even be more time for a little hand drawing in your life.
Workflows are incredible plug and play resources that let you immediately explore design in a whole new way. For academics with a technical bent, they can be modified for particular curricula or projects with ease.
Campus is just an extension of school. We want students to grow into understanding how new tools will shape the profession.
Our Office Hours are in session every week (professors welcome). And we also do private tutoring and special workshops.
Rhino Resources are abundant!
And we know literal people around the world who are using Land Kit in the classroom. We hope to share more of these experiences with everyone.
Sounds fantastic, how do we start?
Workflows
Land Kit features and workflows are free and easy to use. Yep. Check them out!
Licensing

Students can use these in the lab and/or on their laptop depending on the situation.
