Do landscape architects design buildings?

Generally, no.

Their license does not grant them the ability to design buildings. As such, that means that they are limited to buildings that do not require a license to design. This would typically include trellises, unoccupied support structures like sheds or equipment garages, and lastly houses. Most jurisdictions will require any structural portions to be designed by a civil or structural engineer or an architect.

So can they design buildings? Yes, but just to the same extent that any person can.
