I’m kind of hearing two things:
A potential need for professional critique.
An unanswered call to examine landscape changes on a larger scale.

I’m hearing from some students that the crits they are getting are unsatisfactory – geared toward their programs, perhaps, but myopic in relation to the greater landscape. Trace was talking about this to…[Read more]

thank you guys, you are giving me really good informations
i am taking a look to some greenhouses you talked me about… them are great!

Thanx for that. I’m going to Melbourne. Your replies seem optimistic, so I’m glad to hear it..

Como Conservatory in Saint Paul, Minnesota http://www.comozooconservatory.org/cons/index.shtml , or the Mitchell Domes in Milwaukee, WI http://www.county.milwaukee.gov/MitchellParkConserva10116.htm. The latter features different biomes.

NO!!!

The Eden Project based in Cornwall, UK http://www.edenproject.com/ and Kew Gardens in London http://www.kew.org/visit-kew-gardens/index.htm. has a few historical greenhouses.

San Francisco Conservatory in Golden Gate Park, but again, this is not a public greenhouse, it is a botanical garden; open to the publc, but for viewing only. I do not know of any “public” greenhouses wherein one could garden their own plot.

Depends on the city. Sydney is slower than say Melbourne, which seems to be going okay. there is a lot of Vectorworks and microstation usage here. Go to the AILA page (http://www.aila.org.au) look at the firm list of where you are going and contact some firms that you are interested in now. You never know what will happen, i too was here for 2 years and…[Read more]

Yup, so they can raid your house while you are out. Lots of press about this danger lately. And I do like your thinking out loud in type… but agree the suggestion is so large and amorphous it is hard to get one’s mind wrapped around a workable concept. That’s why I think the think out loud thing is so valuable…gets others brainstorming too.…[Read more]

YES and Why? Diverse practice

Longwood! Thanks Jason – really nice one! forgot about that..Bronx Botanic Gardens in new york also has really nice ones…

Have fun – fun to think about..

thank you!

I mean Greenhouses for public use, like the ones in some parks or botanic gardens, like u said 😀

United States Botanic Garden at the base of Capitol Hill (botanical is technically incorrect, as my former British botanic garden head would insist). The National Arboretum doesn’t really have big greenhouses for public perusal its pretty ,much all outside (and huge). Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square PA has a really nice one, as does the Druid…[Read more]

Not sure about the LA field, but the recession as a whole barely touched Australia. What city are you going to?

? What is your definition of a ‘public greenhouse”? Almost all the botanical gardens have greenhouses – BBG in Brooklyn, the National Arboretum in Wash D.C…The gorgeous one on the Mall in Wash D.C. – forget the name..
what is a ‘public greenhouse”?

I think the comment that this is about networking is interesting – to come up with something better, I think one would need to rely on the advantages specifically provided by internet connections. The experiment that NASA (I think?) conducted recently, with finding the red balls somewhere on the earth, takes specific advantage of internet…[Read more]

Keep it coming, closes this Saturday.
