Gunther its weird because our abu dhabi projects are the one keeping us up.

Strut your stuff! Two opportunities with ASLA: http://tldb.blogspot.com/. Will announce the call for student awards when it comes around, too.

Nice group. I look forward to sharing in discussion

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..

You’re welcome, Rico! Let me know how it goes – always looking for more examples of therapeutic landscapes to add to the database (http://www.healinglandscapes.org/sites.html).

It will Naomi, thanks. I’m sure will help. Hoping I could do one in the future for my son who has DS, and maybe for the school he is in right now.

God bless you!

Hello Naomi.

I haven’t really delved deeply in the resources provided by you…but a quick question: any resources on spaces and Down’s Syndrome people?

Thanks.

WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT SITE SPECIFIC DESIGN…..

NAQI IS MY FRIEND…AND HE REALLY TALENTED IN WATERCOLOR TECHNIQUE…
