Landscaping for a better campus: A study of existing
landscapes and their impact on aesthetics and well-being
ABSTRACT:
This study investigates the impact of plant selection and configuration on the
aesthetics and user well-being within campus landscapes, using the KSHEMA
campus as a case study. It explores how various plant arrangements influence the
perception and use of outdoor spaces, combining literature reviews, on-site
documentation, and user surveys. The research identifies a clear preference among
users for layered planting schemes that mimic natural ecosystems, featuring a
combination of canopy trees, mid-story shrubs, and groundcover. Survey responses
reveal that such configurations are associated with enhanced visual appeal, greater
relaxation, and improved functionality in areas like seating zones and walkways.
Key findings also highlight the importance of integrating low-maintenance and
flowering species to balance sustainability with user satisfaction. This study
underscores the need for campus landscape designs that prioritize ecological balance,
visual comfort, and student engagement, ultimately aiming to create environments
that are not only functional but emotionally supportive and aesthetically enriching.

Chapter 1: Synopsis
1.1 Introduction –
Landscaping plays an essential role in shaping the overall environment of a
campus. The selection and arrangement of plants can influence aesthetics, well-
being, and functionality. However, different plant types and configurations can
have varying impacts, and understanding user preferences is crucial in
designing effective landscapes. This study aims to explore how different plant
choices affect people's perception of a campus environment by gathering data
through surveys and live case study.
1.2 Aim –
To analyze the impact of different plant selections and configurations on
campus landscapes by studying existing campuses, documenting the landscape
at KSHEMA, and evaluating user preferences through surveys, in order to
derive informed design strategies that enhance campus aesthetics and well-
being.
1.3 Objectives –
● To study the existing landscape and plant variety at KSHEMA campus
dedicated seating area.
● To conduct and understand the participants preferences and personal
view of the existing landscape.
● To analyze survey responses to identify patterns and preferences.
9
1.4 Methodology –
● Literature Study – Reviewing research papers and articles on plant
selection and campus landscaping.
● Live Case Study – Studying the Kshema campus to document plant
varieties and landscape features using on-site observations and
photography.
● Survey & Data Collection – Conducting a survey using survey forms
and participant responses to gather preferences.

data and comparing them with real-world landscapes.
Figure 1: Methodology Diagram
10
1.5 Scope and Limitations –
Scope:
● The study will focus on campus landscapes, specifically analyzing plant
selection and user preferences.
● The study is specifically centered on campus landscapes , with an emphasis on
plant selection and its impact on aesthetics and well-being.
● It explores how different plant arrangements influence user perception and
preferences within the campus environment.
Limitations:
● The area of pant study and survey will be limited to a dedicated gathering spot
in the KSHEMA campus.
● Participant choices may be subjective and influenced by personal preferences.
● The study does not consider maintenance, cost, or seasonal plant variations
due to time constraints.
1.6 Research Need –
With more campuses focusing on sustainability and visual appeal, it’s
important to look at how different plant choices and arrangements actually
affect how people experience those spaces. While a lot of attention is given to
design theory, what often gets missed is how users truly respond to these
landscapes. This study aims to fill that gap by combining on-site observations
with feedback from students and campus users. By doing so, it hopes to
11
highlight real preferences and provide insights that can help make future
campus landscapes not just well-designed on paper, but also meaningful and
enjoyable in everyday use.
Chapter 2: Literature Review
2.1 The Strategy of Planting Arrangement in College Campus
Culture Construction
The research paper by Wenjun Wang and Hongxing Yi examines how planting
arrangements in college campuses contribute to campus culture, student well-being,
and environmental sustainability. The study highlights that plants are not only
decorative but also serve as cultural symbols, educational tools, and elements of
ecological balance. It critiques the current approach to campus landscaping, which
often prioritizes aesthetics over deeper cultural and educational significance. The
authors emphasize that a well-designed planting strategy can complement classroom
learning, shape student character, and create an inspiring academic atmosphere.
To support their arguments, the researchers analyzed existing campus landscapes and
their impact on students and faculty. They examined case studies of university
campuses, reviewing how plant selection, arrangement, and seasonal variations
influence the campus environment. Additionally, the study explored historical and
cultural perspectives on plant symbolism, demonstrating how certain species reflect
institutional identity and traditions. The research also incorporated principles of
ecological sustainability, advocating for the use of native plants to reduce
maintenance costs and promote biodiversity.
12
The findings suggest that integrating thoughtful planting arrangements—such as
thematic botanical gardens, plant corridors, and interactive green spaces—enhances
both the physical and psychological aspects of campus life. The paper concludes that
a strategic approach to campus landscaping can foster a stronger sense of community,
reinforce cultural heritage, and contribute to a sustainable, enriching educational
environment.
2.2 Exploring the Impact of Campus Landscape Visual Elements
Combination on Short-Term Stress Relief among College Students: A
Case from China
This research paper by Hui He, Tong Zhang, Qinghao Zhang, and colleagues explores
how campus landscape elements influence short-term stress relief among college
students. Conducted at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), the
study involved 54 students across 45 campus spaces, measuring stress-related
physiological indicators such as heart rate (HR), skin conductance (SCL), and
respiratory rate (RESP).
Findings show that water elements (e.g., lakes, ponds, fountains) have the most
significant impact on stress reduction. Additionally, specific landscape
combinations—such as building facades with sky, water with sky, and plant species
with paving—were particularly effective. The study identifies two optimal campus
design patterns for stress relief:
● “Natural Water Scenery” – featuring water bodies surrounded by greenery.
13
● “Exquisite Artificial” – integrating architectural facades, sculptures, and
plants.
The research emphasizes the importance of balancing natural and artificial elements
in campus design. It provides empirical evidence supporting the inclusion of water
features, vertical greening, and strategic plant selection to enhance campus well-being.
2.3 Analysis of Plant Configuration and Landscaping in Campus
Landscape Design
This research paper by Ning Xian and Yeyun Du examines the role of plant
configuration and landscaping in university campus design, emphasizing both
scientific arrangement and artistic expression. The study highlights that campus
greenery is not only an aesthetic feature but also crucial for student and faculty well-
being, environmental sustainability, and cultural identity. It identifies common issues
such as poor plant selection, lack of seasonal variety, and inadequate maintenance.
The study is based on an in-depth analysis of a university campus, evaluating plant
configurations in functional zones like entrances, pathways, teaching areas, and
recreational spaces. The research methodology includes field observations, site
analysis, and assessment of plant types and spatial arrangements. It also examines the
historical evolution of landscape design, noting a shift from rigid, symmetrical styles
to more ecologically balanced approaches.
Findings reveal that lack of thoughtful plant selection leads to seasonal dullness and
poor environmental integration. Issues such as excessive use of non-native species
14
and poorly planned green spaces further reduce landscape effectiveness. The study
suggests solutions like strategic use of native and seasonal plants, vertical greening,
and interactive green spaces such as botanical gardens and student-maintained flower
beds.
The paper concludes that an optimized campus landscape should balance ecological
sustainability, cultural representation, and student engagement. Thoughtful plant
configuration enhances both the visual appeal and functionality of campus spaces,
fostering a healthier and more inspiring learning environment.
2.4 Review Summary
The literature reviewed highlights the critical role of thoughtful planting strategies in
shaping not just the visual, but also the cultural, psychological, and environmental
aspects of campus landscapes. Across all three studies, there is a consistent emphasis
on how plant arrangements influence user experience—whether through enhancing
campus identity, promoting well-being, or reinforcing ecological values. While
aesthetics remain important, these studies argue for a more holistic approach that
considers cultural symbolism, seasonal variation, native plant use, and stress
reduction. Together, they establish a strong foundation for this dissertation,
reinforcing the importance of strategic plant selection and configuration in creating
meaningful and sustainable campus environments.

Chapter 5: Analysis and Conclusion
The survey responses and site observations together demonstrate that plant
configurations which emulate natural, multi-layered ecosystems have the strongest
positive impact on campus users’ perceptions and well-being. Respondents
consistently rated areas featuring a canopy of trees (for example, Tabebuia rosea and
Sterculia foetida) over mid-story shrubs (such as Costus woodsonii and
Megaskepasma erythrochlamys) and groundcovers (like Phalaris arundinacea and
Pogonatherum paniceum) as the most aesthetically pleasing and psychologically
restorative. These layered zones—particularly around seating areas and along shaded
pathways—were described by students as “inviting,” “calming,” and “ideal for study
or conversation.” Conversely, expanses of open lawn with little vegetation received
the lowest preference scores and were often avoided during survey participants’
campus routines.
32
In addition, clusters of flowering plants (notably Alpinia zerumbet and Hibiscus
schizopetalus) provided vibrant focal points that enhanced users’ mood, though
participants noted that such displays must be balanced with ease of maintenance. The
preference for low‐maintenance groundcovers and resilient shrubs indicates that
sustainable planting schemes can align both operational feasibility and user
satisfaction.
Taken together, the data suggest that future campus landscape designs should
prioritize: (1) layered planting structures around high-use functional zones; (2)
strategic placement of flowering clusters for seasonal interest; and (3) selection of
low-maintenance species to ensure longevity and cost-effectiveness. By
implementing these recommendations, campus environments can become not only
more beautiful on paper, but genuinely engaging and supportive of students’ aesthetic
and well-being needs in everyday use.
