With the acceleration of the urbanization process, people's requirements for the quality of living environment continue to improve, and environmental awareness is also enhanced. In this context, landscape design, as an important means to improve the urban environment and enhance the quality of life of residents, plays an increasingly important role in the higher education system. However, the traditional teaching mode often focuses on the teaching of theoretical knowledge, ignoring the practical operation link, resulting in students often powerless in the face of practical projects, and it is difficult to meet the current industry's demand for compound talents who know both theory and rich practical experience. In order to cope with this challenge, the teaching model and method need to be innovated. As a project-based teaching method, which emphasizes practicality and innovation, project-based teaching has attracted much attention in education circles at home and abroad in recent years. By allowing students to participate in real or simulated project design and practice, the method closely combines theoretical knowledge with practical operation, so as to effectively stimulate students' interest in learning and improve learning results. This paper deeply discusses how to effectively integrate project-style teaching into landscape design course of environmental art design major. Through elaborating the concept, characteristics and advantages of project-style teaching, it puts forward a series of targeted improvement strategies. These strategies aim to help relevant educators make better use of project-based teaching methods, so as to cultivate more environmental art design talents with solid theoretical foundation, excellent practical ability and innovative ability, so as to inject new vitality into the sustainable development of China's landscape design industry. The results show that project-based teaching plays an important role in improving students' comprehensive quality and meeting the needs of the industry.
