Reply To: What Trends will Influence Garden Design and Landscape Architecture in 2013?

Sorry Trace but lot’s of designers “design” by trend. I did it when I was fresh out of school. I did a lot of concentric circle, trapezoidal forms and juxtaposing anything to everything else just because I thought I had to.

 

Young landscape designers try your best to stay away from design trends if you can. It doesn’t take long before they just look silly. Leave that to the fashion designers. Interior Designers and Architects are already redoing kitchens with granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances.

 

My gosh if I see another negative edge pool I’ll scream. It was cool the first or second time I saw it, but now it’s like a prerequisite.
