Great idea for a group, Jennifer. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about where I can find positive examples of design company policies/experiences and I’m eager to hear them, as well as creative, constructive discussion about ways to improve the bad ones.
I’d like to offer a positive story so I’ll have to reach beyond my design office experience,…[Read more]

so, since we’re sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly here’s my contribution.

However, I am also studying storm water mitigation and its connections to green streets. Am working to find ways to combine the two interests.

I am a design company that builds. I am extremely passionate about what I do.
My design style is definately contemporary, but will design more natural projects if required. We lean toward the more high end projects that require pool, structures and landscaping. Look forward to networking and learning more.

My favorite projects are residential, with bigger budget. Contemporary style in the design and including the design of the pool and light.

Great idea for a group! I’m not in much of a position to offer advice but am eager to hear a discussion of this. I can say that since I’m also a planner in addition to an la (and have several times been the only planner on the office design team), I’ve always made a point to check my planning resources (web and old fashioned networking) for RFPs…[Read more]

Hi Joe and welcome!
We are the downstate chapter – the upstate chapter officially goes by “New York Upstate.” Good point of clarification to include in the description of this group though!
