Denis – try “From Concept to Form in Landscape Design” by Grant Reid. It’s a good starting point for what you’re talking about.

Denis Vasiliev posted an update in the group DESIGN 13 years, 5 months ago

Hello! I am looking for manuals on Design itself – especially combining forms and shapes(geometry), getting beatiful lines, proportions and finally getting harmonious composition. Any good books or e-books? The best free available on-line:) Waiting for advices!

Nice Craig! I wish we all could take a few years to pursue our dreams. Do you think your time on the bikes or with your bass has changed how you think/ work at Landscape Architecture?

Craig A Raines posted an update in the group Landscapers Out of the Box 13 years, 7 months ago

While a practicing licensedlandscpe architect here in Los Angeles…I took 5 years off to pursue a dream…..I roadraced motocycles. AMA superbike class….yeah a bit different. I also played bass guitar in some LA punk bands.

Jose posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 8 months ago

I just took section A. I thought it was on the Legal and Administrative Aspects of Practice. Little did I know that I was going to be tested on concrete test and what trash to recycle on the job site…..as a matter of fact I don’t remember seeing one question on bidding or the process or contract…Thanks CLARB for making me study crap that has…[Read more]

Hello all.. Any plant buffs out there have experience with Panicum virgatum ‘heavy metal’ or ‘Northwind’ in the SF bay area? Based on the zone specs it should be fine but my broker hasn’t sold too many of them and couldn’t comment on how they perform in the area… any help would be appreciated.

hello guys…

glad to join the group.

Jarrod Katzer posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 11 months ago

Let me just add to my last with a couple of tidbits. Don’t worry about taking all the tests at once. I have not noticed a lot of overlap – each section almost entirely pertains to its stated material. Frankly, I think folks that say “that test had nothing but section # material on it!” likely did not prepare long enough to know that they were be…[Read more]

You’re welcome. I hope it helps. I’m using this method now to study for Section B.

Jarrod Katzer posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 11 months ago

I’ve taken two of the three multiple choice exams and passed those two the first time using the following method. I wrote a blog entry somewhere on this site expanding on this method but here it is in a nutshell: It may seem strange at first but it works – apparently. You should know I have no LA degree so I had even that much more of a hand…[Read more]

Elizabeth Renton posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 11 months ago

I might suggest that taking A&D at the same time might be a good approach as well. There was quite a bit of material that seemed to overlap on the 2 tests…might as well study it all at once!

I took all 3 at the same time. It is indeed doable if you follow Ray’s suggestions. I spent about 6 weeks studying intensively…an hour or two every…[Read more]
