Abstract
This doctoral thesis employs a Design Science Research (DSR) approach to investigate and demonstrate the values within landscape architecture in the context of my own professional practice. This study integrates empirical research, self-reflective case studies, and theoretical frameworks to create actionable knowledge for the field. The study endeavours to answer two questions. What value has my practice provided in the areas of Economics, Environment, Society and Aesthetics. Secondly, what personal values have defined the provision of these benefits and how have they changed over the course of my career.
