After a landscape is designed it is most of the time changed and re-designed by the people who use the landscape. People do this to landscapes that are natural and not man made. An example of what I mean are natural trails like this.

An example of what I mean are natural trails like this. These were not designed in the sense of thought out in a drawing and deliberately made by designers, these were designed by the people who use that landscape. Are the people who use the landscape and create these designers?I do not know the answer to this, it is whatever you want to think but I will show you some examples of Landscape Architects who use the people as the designers. A landscape architect had the students on campus for a year carve where they wanted the paths to go. After the year was done there were distinct paths that people took to and from class and those were the paths the Landscape Architect made the paths for that courtyard. Another form of everyday people designing the landscape is guerrilla art where artists add their own artwork to the design like this
For me graffiti is another example of guerrilla art that someone draws to help design the landscape.
These are a few examples I have found of people helping to design the landscape and as a landscape architect major I am finding out more and more how important it is to use the people as designers not just myself.
