For more terra mode stuff hit up our blog http://www.terramode.blogspot.com ill post a couple renderings here in hopes of initiating some discussion and work sharing. I think this could be pretty interesting if people start to share work and ideas. Please dont worry about putting up experimental or beginners work this group is for all experience levels.…[Read more]

Terra mode does a lot of high end environmental rendering, and yes we do animations as well. However, we would like to start to apply more physics based animations that give real information such as watershed calculations. Visual information is key to our industry. 3ds max enables the designer to raise the bar on the spread of relevant information.

hi there, looks good.
would be nice to see a larger version.
i am using 3ds max only little, but trying to improve.
do you do animations as well?

yeah. i hope this takes off. see how many of us are out there and what the work looks like. I think i might add a bunch of our images to get the ball rolling…

Looks good, I hope more people post their work.

Has anyone seen a CA native develop over time? I’m interested in how native gardens survive in the real world of residencia. I’m using my own yard as a test, having just planted about 50 various species. They’re all infants right now, but I’m very excited to see how they grow,

iT IS MOSTLY CULLET DISPOSAL AND HEAVY METALS (LEAD), MOST OTHER CONTAMINENTS WHERE FULLY REMOVED. I WAS ACTUALLY INTERESTED IN BIO – PHYRO REMEDIATIONS BUT HAD NOT FOUND A GREAT DEAL OF INFO ON THEM.

Hi; I m new in this group. I m working in some projects in the Emirates, but our office is in beautiful Sicily, Italy. I decided to learn the arabic language. People told me that at least in UAE you don´t need to know the language for working there, but for me It is a matter of respect, I would like to know the culture from the country / region…[Read more]

Does anybody have any suggestions or tips on which ME countries have the best job potential? I’m trying to figure out if work in the region is a viable option these days as my home market (Phoenix, Arizona) has stalled completely. Contacts or resource information would be more than appreciated. Thanks!

Ya i defentenly plan on trying to use Bioretention techniques, but this is not a exectly a mitigation techniques it is a stormwater solution, i need some way to extract or mitigate the heavy metals that are with in the soil and water on site, bioretention will help in preventing them to go to the stream but then they are still on site in the soil.

Bioretention is a technique that can be used in nearly any environment, including brownfields, as a water quality control. This may be getting too technical for your project, but depending on the amount of on-site contamination, I would recommend that you wrap all of your stormwater BMPs with an impermeable membrane to help control the spread of…[Read more]

i am a landscape architecture student working on my senior project, which is a brownfield site ( old glass manufacture), and curious to see if any one had unique design, mitigation techniques and or a case study i should look in to.

I am currently working on my senior cap stone B.S. – LA project , which is a brownfield site ( old glass manufacture). I was curious to see if any one had any unique mitigation techniques or could refer me to a few good case studies.

I work in dubai right now in G C L A, the thing is that Landscape architecture companies stopped hiring but are not firing, as a respond to the crisis, but as a company we are minorly affected some projects un dubai were terminated. Gunther its weird because our abu dhabi projects are the one keeping us up.

Let me introduce myself. I am the state representative for Michigan for the APLD. I will be bringing educational events to the area. I welcome any comments or questions regarding this.

I prefer generation hand drawn perspectives in pencil, then overlay with white trash using Pentel Sign Pen for line work and Chart Pak for color.

Thanks Ammar. At the moment, construction and any new development is being put on hold in Dubai. There were speculations on Abu Dhabi to be the next player in the industry with a lots of exciting ‘green’ projects coming up..

~Just abit of an updates on the current situation in Dubai~

Abdulkader A. Al-Gilani,

Thanks for the reference for middle eastern plants. An Illustrated Guide to the Flowers of Saudi Arabia will be added to my shelf, and will be a great help for future projects in the area.

Syaryzad,

The market is Saudi Arabia is good. In fact, I’m now looking for three landscape architects to work with me. I work at one of the biggest design firms in the region “Zuhair Fayez Partnership” I am the lead landscape architect at the rapid projects department, and I urgently need three landscape architects to start working with my team…[Read more]

Hi guys..
I am wondering whether any of you are affected by the economical crisis at the moment? A few of my friends in Dubai were laid off recently due to the stagnant market..
Are there still market for Landscape Architect in the Middle East?
