Land8: Landscape Architects Network

Yes I think landscape architecture in the UK needs a boost in profile. I can’t understand, for example, why the top universities don’t offer landscape architecture courses?

Hi
Does anyone have project info or links where I can find detail on landscape projects in Africa. Especially places out of South Africa.

So does the water go through in the right hand corner of each cell? Or is each cell a separate containment area?

Hello from beautiful Moscow, Idaho!

OK- let’s save the world!  Glad to be among the initiated here…

Can’t wait!

All right! Go FIU! Cant wait to see everyone!

Can anyone point  out a good source for sustainability and materials and methods. It felt great on the exam, but something has to be missing. Im floating between 2s and 3s and I have referenced many books that I have. Do the practice exams help?

Here is some pics from the project I described below- this was from 3 months ago and is coming along nicely. Note the re-used granite that we incorporated from existing curbs on the street. The sidewalk is alternating concrete broom finish and shell agreggate wash.

Thanks David and Bayazit.
I’ll have to check out some of those plug-ins, and while I’m at it I have to get V-Ray.
I’d love to see some samples of 3rd party plug-ins.

Hi Hefti,
 
you can find some examples at my DA Gallery 3D Jobs folder. Most of the recent works are produced with 3D vegetation, a combination of pre-made models, self-models used via proxies and rendered with MentalRay or Vray. Hopefully, they can give some idea.
 

Question: anyone have some pictures of examples of vegetation done in 3Ds?
 

Thanks, Veenu!
