... to preserve or create a pleasing site character all the various elements or parts must be brought into harmony. We make much of this word "harmony." Do we mean to imply that everything should blend with or get lost in the landscape as through protective coloration or camouflage? No, but rather that the planner, in addressing a land-water holding, from small plot to vast acreage, will so integrate the structural and topographical forms as to produce the best possible fit.
