Abstract

With the transformation and development of the landscape design industry in China, the status of environmental psychology in design is increasingly elevated. The landscape plantings in traditional Chinese gardens, as a significant feature of local landscape development, provide excellent reference models for contemporary landscape design. This study integrates the plantings in traditional Chinese gardens with the basic concepts and principles of environmental psychology, analyzes the impact of traditional planting schemes on the psychology of viewers in terms of plant trait selection, spatial layout, and interactive experience, and explores how to optimize the planting design in modern garden landscapes through the principles of environmental psychology, to provide psychological perspectives for the practical development of Chinese garden landscape design.
