Throughout history, people’s pursuit of “beauty” has never stopped. From the natural beauty of the past to all kinds of novel beauty, the new generation of landscape architects have tried many new design techniques and new applications. As a result, the development of new materials and technologies has received increasing attention. The new material is an indispensable and important factor in landscape design. It witnessed the urban development process and appeared more frequently with a new face. This study mainly explains the impact of different materials on the development of different eras, introduces the current status of new materials, summarizes the characteristics of new materials, and summarizes the ways in which new materials are used in contemporary landscapes. Finally, the future development trend of the new materials is prospected. It is hoped that this research will provide some suggestions for the current domestic landscape design practice to a certain extent, and build a bridge between design theory and practice.
