Man-made landscape is always an expression of society, culture, and local geography, and is traditionally the basic area of concern for the landscape architect. The cultural landscape may also be the larger, regional landscape in which a society traditionally finds its home, develops its myths, and imagines its future. 5, record 1, English, - man%2Dmade%20landscape

Combinations of the three main plant types -- trees, shrubs, and groundcovers -- are found everywhere in nature, but the lack of any one of them from the scene, especially in "hand-made" landscapes, can create a genuine sense of omission.

La géographie humaine, quant à elle, a de même sectorialisé l'appréhension des paysages humanisés, en études de l'habitat rural et en celle des structures agraires, par exemple, et, en milieu urbain, n'a pas semblé sensibilisée aux faits d'ordre paysagique. 4, record 1, French, - paysage%20humanis%C3%A9
