Duration: 1 day

Dates:

Start time: 9.30am End time: 4.00pm

Morpholio Trace is fast becoming the go-to iPad-based design software within the landscape and garden design industries. In essence, it’s a complete architectural drawing board in your pocket. The software allows users to work directly over topographic surveys, add layers of tracing paper just like on a physical drawing board, and calculate areas and dimensions in seconds. It’s equally suited to producing plans, elevations, and concept visuals — all at professional, scaled accuracy.

The key advantage for landscapers and designers is flexibility: it enables them to sketch, plan and present designs anywhere — on site, in a café, or on the move — without sacrificing quality or precision. Even those with limited freehand drawing skills can produce polished, client-ready visuals thanks to the intelligent tools built into the platform. For those who prefer pen-and-paper sketching to conventional CAD systems, Morpholio Trace offers a far more natural, creative experience while significantly enhancing workflow, presentation quality, and professional capability.

This one-day course will cover all of the essential skills required to use Morpholio Trace confidently and effectively. Participants will learn how to:

  1. Understand the basic functionality of Morpholio Trace and its use as a design tool.

  2. Work over topographic surveys imported from architects and surveyors drawings.

  3. Produce accurate surveys from satellite imagery.

  4. Create scaled drawings and quick concept plans.

  5. Combine freehand drawing with accurate measurement.

  6. Produce polished presentation visuals ready for clients.

The aim of this course is to give landscapers and designers practical, transferable digital skills that will directly improve their workflow, communication, and overall professional offer.
