Hi,

Greetings of the day, 

I’m Scott, an experienced Landscape Architecture in Long Island. Being a professional in this field i recommend to you collect experience as much as you can with an experienced firm/company where you can explore & share your design skills. This will surely help you a lot in improving your design skills.

Thanks.

thank u Scott for your recommendation. Yes I am now working for an experienced company. Not the best company in design in my opinion but still there’re things that I can learned from. Heard some companies which are good in design are tough towards their employees i.e. working for long hrs etc.  Can’t have everything in one place I supposed.

How many people need to go where, when? In its most basic form, public space needs to move people, efficiently, and simply. No high design can save a space that doesn’t perform the function for the people that need to inhabit it. I would start with learning about how people move, why, and what stops them.
