Morphology
The phrase literally combines 'change' (to alter) with 'landscape' (the visible environment), so a learner can infer it means altering an environment or situation; however the use of 'landscape' in a figurative sense (field, context, outlook) is a metaphorical extension that may not be fully predictable without exposure. Because the connection is partly transparent but relies on a figurative sense of 'landscape', it is best classified as semi-transparent.
Etymology
The phrase change the landscape comes from the image of real land being changed, like fields turned into roads or new buildings that change how a place looks and works. So it now means 'to make a big change' in how something looks or works.
