Landscape Architecture Blogs

[Eric Galvin]

Im always looking for more blogs, my RSS reader (http://www.netvibes.com) is packed to the brim with Landscape Architecture blogs, but most aren’t updated very often. The first sets are updated very frequently, and the list after that, a little less frequently (please correct me if im wrong) Id like to hear what some of you all read to keep up with the latest developments in the LA world. here is a list of the ones i watch, my own blog included (i know, shameless self promotion ;-9):

“dialogue and siftings from Portland, Oregon focusing on landscape, architecture, urbanism, vegetated architecture, urban agriculture, living walls, green roofs, ecological planning and design.”

Cool, thanks for the list. I use Pageflakes, which graphically shows the top posts from my favorite blogs on one page (using RSS feeds). I’ve created a public page at: http://www.pageflakes.com/croughwell/22836207. Check it out. I’ll add some of those blogs you listed, too.

I have spent the past two years working in Dubai. During that time I kept a blog for the purpose of asking and searching for: What is the Dubai landscape 2006-2008?

I was able to make about one contribution per month…lots of images…a fair amount of commentary…I posted The Final Entry yesterday. You can find it at:

Have fun!

Ok, this isn’t a blog but rather a wiki started by a landscape architect in Seattle who is pretty knowledgeable on the subject of green infrastructure. But instead of posting comments to someone elses blog, you can become a member of the wiki and add your contributions and help build the database of green elements and world wide case studies. Check it out…The Green Infrastructure Wiki

Alas, one more self-promotional posting. My ad-free Places and Spaces Blog – http://epd372.blogspot.com/ – is a mix of landscape architecture, planning and geomatics. If you can’t stand the other stuff, you can get just the Landscape Architecture posts. I started it for our students, but have discovered a much more varied readership than I anticipated.

HI-
you could check out my blog…more garden design that Landscape Arch…I try to be appealing to the design community and potential clients… and am def not a gardening blog… as a designer who focuses on residential, hospitality and other intimate public spaces, I think it is very interesting and inspirational (if I can say so myself). If as an LA, you don’t like, I would love some feedback about what you would like to see more of… check it out at http://studiog.greayer.com
Now I am going to check out all those that you have listed here….thanks
