Mack,
I think Errors and Omissions Insurance is usually a policy that the firm keeps on itself, you may change Insurance companies from time to time but the insurance is usually constant. I don’t believe it is available on a job by job basis.

One more question….E&O is this something needed forever? If I do a job today do I have to carry it till I die or is there a statute of limitations?
Can it be obtained on a month to month or by job basis?

I wanted to add a comment/question.
I have seen serveral diffrent ways to approch contracts and proposals. One way is keep it very simple, the other it to complicate it to the point of needed a harvard law degree to understand the contract.
The questing I have is where is the middle ground? I don’t want to be too simple, miss something and then be…[Read more]

Sad to see like-a-minds leave the profession and seek totally different jobs these days. Actually I pick small works from Europe/Middle East, and I have not heard much hopeful news in the country for a while. On the other hand, I have come across enthusiastic Japanese garden fan in Europe. So I created the group to share the true stories and info…[Read more]

Architecture alum absolutely welcome! I was in the program back in the 80’s before L.A. merged with the Architecture college. Makes more sense now than in the RNR college.

Hey group 2008, lets get mingling with the world

Good to be here!

We are all back in motion. School started back up monday and the Design building seems to be doing fine. Some of the faculty and students in Baton Rouge still are without power but the majority do have power.

Looks like Ike is bringing some winds and rain but nothing like Gustav so I assume everything will be ok and we won’t have any more setbacks.

Great idea for a group! Can you tell us more about the charrette?

Brandon…
Thanks for creating this group. For anyone that will be attending the ASLA Annual Meeting in Philly, I will be moderating two roundtable discussions regarding topics revelant to this group.
The first roundtable is Best Business Practices and Client relations in the Residential Market. It is scheduled for Monday, October 6 at 9:45 a.m.…[Read more]

Hi Business Group people,
looking forward to your comments, especially from more experienced colleagues. I graduated 2 months ago, business is still waiting for me.

Greetings from Sarajevo

Great idea for a group, Brandon!

How much do you charge for landscape concepts? This question is for everyone!

ha-dziaa!!! (jak mawia Brus Lee na wejściu :))

So what’s up on campus? It sounds like power is back. But are things in gear now? Or did the hurricane and the threat of another set classes back further than it might seem from the outside?

if you are doing watercolors by hand, what is the best way to get the architectural image onto a watercolor type paper?
