Hello fellow irrigation designers! I am taking the Certified Landscape irrigation Auditor Exam in the beginning of October and was wondering if anyone has the 2007 manual? Let me know if you would be willing to part with it! Thanks 🙂

thanks Vladimir for the comment, I agree competitions need to be transparent, it’s good to be reminded that we live in the world of politics and connections. SO even if u have the very good design u will be a winner, sad truth…..
It reminds me one competition I idid in Lodz,Poland where the winner for the big square had a photo of Toronto…[Read more]

Before you embark on any competition I advise you to check the political context. Bevare of any competition that has politicians as judges. Anglo – saxon countries have tendency to compromise the results and often completely change the outcome.
One such competition just happened In Sydney (Darling Harbour East) where due to unacceptable meddling…[Read more]

A ja mam pytane odnośnie procedur FIDIC. Czy spotkaliście się z koniecznością posiadania przez arch. kraj dodatkowych kwalifikacji związanych z ta procedurą? Czy od kogoś z szanownego grona wymagano ukończenia szkolenia lub warsztatów w tym zakresie?

Wygląda na to, że cele warszawskiego oddziału SARP pokrywają się z SAK w zakresie uprawnień. Czy ktoś może mi powiedzieć czy SAK współpracuje z nimi? A może warto byłoby się zjednoczyć w jakiejś formie?

i am interested to set up online landscape design company for project in middle east and like to invite landscape architect to work online on project base.

I have questions about Vectorworks.. one of that is.. when I use VW for 3d site modeling, it becomes so slow.. I made layers simple, even classes.. But still slow..

We use Land FX; which it sounds like the same setup as Raincad. It is extremely simple to pick up on and their support is like no other. We have been using it for almost 5 years now without one complaint. I would give them a call and talk to their rep if you are interested.

Hmm, a ja tak banalnie może, ale właśnie wróciłam z kidasmi z przedszkola, i tak mi się skojarzyło, że tak jak żadne mądre rady i nauczanie w szkołach rodzenia (przepraszam za skojarzenie) nie uczy jak być rodzicem, tak chyba żadna szkoła nie do końca wykształci architekta krajobrazu, bo kazdy z nas ma inne oczekiwania i postrzeganie rz…[Read more]

Thanks! I’ll try it! I really want to be good at visualizing.. !!

I use mostly Photoshop for my renderings, I have dabbled a bit in Corel Painter, and Corel Painter Sketchbook, but I really like photoshop. The trick to the water is its is an image that I found on Google images and distorted into perspective in Photoshop and then pasted into the image…

This looks good. What program do you usually use for this? Especially I like that water
texture. I want to learn it!

something to look at… please provide comments, questions, or criticism. thanks

There is a competition in the City of Charlottesville, Va., for the design of a Clock for their famous pedestrian downtown mall..The prize is $1,500, I think. Nice little project!

Kim, I have seen some examples in Charleston, SC that are using some green street technologies such as curbside bioretention and permeable pavers. I would look up Liberty Hills and Oak Terrace Preserve which I believe are both in North Charleston. Here are some pics:
