Contemporary landscape architecture faces increasingly complex environmental challenges that require sophisticated approaches integrating multiple ecological processes. While digital tools have advanced many aspects of landscape design, significant limitations remain in analyzing and communicating dynamic interactions between soil, vegetation, and climate processes. This paper presents the development of BeingAliveLanguage, a computational framework that explores these challenges through visualization and analysis tools. Operating within the Rhino-Grasshopper environment, the framework integrates four key components: soil analysis, root dynamics, tree growth modeling, and climate integration. The research combines scientific principles with visual representation methods to facilitate communication between stakeholders while maintaining technical accuracy. Applications ranging from urban forestry to landscape restoration projects demonstrate the framework’s potential for supporting design decisions and interdisciplinary collaboration. This work suggests future directions for computational approaches in landscape architecture, particularly regarding complex environmental challenges and cross-disciplinary communication.
