The process of landscape transformation has age-long history. People participate in it since not long ago – more or less consciously. The paper is limited only to the role of landscape architecture in this process. History of landscape architecture as a self-dependent profession - even in United States, where it was established - is no longer than 100 years. According to the oldest and most consistent definition, the landscape architecture is primarily a fine art, and as such its most important function is to create and preserve beauty in the surroundings of human habitations and in the broader natural scenery of the country. It means that the beauty is a key word here. Wandering between the theory and practice, we will try to find the answers for the following questions: · Does the creation of beauty fits to any theory · What is relation of theory of preservation of beauty to the practice · For whom the beauty is needed
