Why don’t you just “make” them?
It is fairly easy. I developed my own photoshop technique back in 1998 and a few years later the same office (and a few others people have moved too) were using it to produce plans.
And it was not rocket science, I am sure it was quite easy to do because my PS technique was rubbish!

I do know of Batlle and Roig. They are architects. They do have a form of Landscape Architecture qualifications that is very nice and expensive, but it carries no official weight.
Lots of people are coming to Spain attracted by this kind of work, paying good money for Masters and the like, not knowing that they are not official and cannot be…[Read more]

I am going to reply here what I replied in the thread about Brazil, because it may be relevant:

There is no equivalent to LARE in Europe.Each country has its own system. The main difference between countries is whether a profession is regulated, simply recognised or does not exist as such and it is therefore illegal to work under that…[Read more]

Hola,There is no equivalent to LARE in Europe.
Each country has its own system. The main difference between countries is whether a profession is regulated, simply recognised or does not exist as such and it is therefore illegal to work under that professional title.
“Regulated Profession” means that it enjoys official status and the professional…[Read more]

Don’t qualify people trying to make a living. Ok? It’s not fair
Go and berate some rich boy in Wall Street or whatever, they are shafting the planet big time with their push for big war and cheap oil to keep their Learjets in tip-top form.
Try one of those if you dare, then come back and we’ll nurse your wounds.

“Every time I flush the toilet or buy anything I leave my mark.”
Try a brush. uh?

No worries, I didn’t know that Gringo was anything than north American (I think it includes Canadians too, but I don’t want to offend you any further).
I had been called Gaucho in some other discussion and I guess that I was primed for my own casual use of slang.
Anyhow, you keep up the quality comments!

Have you tried doing whatever you feel may work? As in really going for it? It may work just fine.
Reading your post, I feel that you may be perfectly suited for a job in London, Engeland.
Weather is rubbish but it is a pretty good place to have a dab at design world domination…

;-))))))

Don’t really know what Gringo means in the States in the same way that you probably don’t know what calling somebody Bro might mean in Spain.
In yester days, Gringo used to mean from across the border ie: US citizen, as opposed to local ie: Mexican. But that was a while ago.
Don’t you worry about about a little misunderstanding or two: there is…[Read more]

You wouldn’t last two minutes in bizz over here my gringo friend, I can assure ya…

I have been developing contact with Brazil in the last few years and some of my friends have moved there at the same time. Unless you are going there with a job, Brazil’s job market is not as straight forward as you may think.
In first place, I am not very sure you can offer your services if you do not speak the language. It simply does not work…[Read more]

I consider myself both. Aside from the legal aspects, there is very little difference between LA’s as opposed to LD’s. It is mostly down to labeling derived from training. There is very little about LA that you cannot pick up from a book or two, so LA’s tend to be quite touchy about this, since we do not hold any specific knowledge that may give…[Read more]

The July 2009 EGM is an opportunity to vote for change in the LI and I will therefore vote in favour of the motion. But I like to see both sides of an argument and have therefore published the arguments for and against the…[Read more]

EGM on the 15th of July of 2009
Please attend the EGM and participate in one of the few democratic procedures left at the LI.

Whatever your views, please check the facts first and make your mind up later. The result is largely irrelevant, as the incumbent Board has made it quite clear int he past that they not feel bound by EGM voting…[Read more]

The Landscape Institute has posted a “Response” to my TImeline of a Fraud and you can download it here:

I would find it mildly amusing, if it wasn’t so sad an indictment on our profession.

UPDATE

If the Confidential Files in my possesion are right, i have now evidence of the fact that the LI went 121,000 OVER BUDGET in 2007-08. This expenditure was neither foreseen not planned for, and it cannot be blamed on any shortfall in Income of any kind. This is totally unrelated to ALL the explanations given so far for our Financial…[Read more]

More on this. Boring, isn’t it?

Mr Williamson,

Following Mr Thorne’s publication in our Forum a private message concerning several confidential and delicate matters regarding the situation at the Landscape Institute, I would like to bring up a number of points.

Firstly, I must commend Mr Thorne’s courage and regret his foolishness. I believe…[Read more]
