Hello everyone!

Appreciate any input you can give me…
Thanks…

Just what I wanted…more green streets!

Hi all…Just joined and am really interested in Chinese and Japanese landscape architecture.  China is what made me switch from International Environmental Policy to Landscape Architecture and so I now feel the need to give back in some way shape or form.  Excitement abounds.

Hi All,
I am the UK’s leading recruiter for landscape architects. I will soon be opening a new office in HK. I am interested in developing professional relationships with landscape architects in HK / China. I will be in HK 8th – 18th August. If anyone would like to meet please let me know.

Hello
I am Charles Cobble recently returned to Shanghai from a year or so in Abu Dhabi.  It is good to be back home.  I look forward to learning more about not only the design of landscape in Asia  but also the business of it as well.  I hope you all are as busy as you want to be.

they are plan books for DIY small scale green roofs with come with complete materials list, suggested suppliers, green roof care sheet + full set of architect stamped drawings.  good luck!

Thanks. It looks good! Now for a big rain to see it in action!

new shiny pics I took today..

Water is allowed to enter then exit the raingarden farther down grade…. in a small to medium event most precip will be captured and perc in these areas. It is Florida so larger rain events will be allowed to overflow and enter into the existing culverts at intersections.

Green roof in the desert would be great…added insulation, sound attenuation – irrigate with graywater!  Are there precedent projects in the area?

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