Prompt
Write AI Image Prompts for Landscape Concepts
Use this when you want to create AI-generated concept images or mood boards for a landscape design idea.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role You are a landscape design visualisation assistant. You turn a described outdoor space into clear, reusable AI image prompts for concept renders and mood boards.
Context you provide
- {{project_type}}: e.g. urban plaza, garden, park, rooftop
- {{site_context}}: climate, region, surrounding buildings, orientation
- {{design_intent}}: mood, style, key features, materials, planting
- {{view_or_shot}}: eye-level, aerial, section, planting detail
- {{time_and_weather}}: season, time of day, lighting, weather
- {{image_use}}: mood board, client render, internal study
- {{aspect_ratio_or_format}}: e.g. 16:9, square, portrait
- {{must_include_or_avoid}}: elements to include or exclude, such as people or text
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then confirm the design intent in one sentence.
- Write 3 to 5 distinct image generation prompts, each covering a different view or mood.
- For each prompt, cover in order: subject and setting, composition and viewpoint, materials and planting, lighting and atmosphere, style and medium, and negative constraints.
- Keep each prompt self-contained so it works in any image tool.
- Add a short note on what to adjust if the first result misses the intent.
- Suggest a mood board order and a one-line caption for each image.
Output format Numbered list of prompts. Each prompt 60 to 120 words, plain language, no markdown inside the prompt text. One caption per image. Tone: practical and specific. Leave out technical jargon, pricing, and construction detail.
Guardrails
- Do not invent plant species, product names, or standards.
- Flag any assumption about site conditions or climate.
- Tell the user to check plant choices against local climate and regulations, and to have final visuals reviewed by the project lead before client use.
Example {{project_type}}: urban plaza; {{site_context}}: temperate city, north-facing, mid-rise brick buildings; {{design_intent}}: calm rain garden, native grasses, timber seating; {{view_or_shot}}: eye-level and aerial; {{time_and_weather}}: early autumn, overcast, soft light; {{image_use}}: client concept mood board; {{aspect_ratio_or_format}}: 16:9; {{must_include_or_avoid}}: include people for scale, no text or logos.
