Christopher- The thing that stood out the most is your resume. Move your education down towards the bottom- below everything other than maybe affiliations. With it on top, above professional experience, you are making it look like it is more important than your actual work.

Hi Chad – What got me interested in Inclusive design? You’re right, it was my work with therapeutic gardens, especially gardens in the healthcare setting. But then branching out from that, thinking about taking the design principles used for therapeutic gardens in places of healing and broadening to other places where people play and learn.

Welcome Naomi. What got you interested in Inclusive design? I see from your profile that you are heavily interested in theraputic gardens, which certainly overlaps into inclusive design.

Mark, I wouldn’t hesitate to go back to your old employer to ask for more samples. That employer could be very understanding of the circumstances “out there” and want to help you. – Who knows, maybe he will have just gotten a big job and will need to hire you back!
Good luck

What is Landscape Urbanism? A discipline, an instrument or just a term to promote people and programmes? How is this term defined in relation to landscape architecture, a term that has proven suitable internationally until now? Do new responsibilities in practice and theory also need new designations? Or can the profession also be renewed under…[Read more]

Thanks Stephanie, I see what you mean. Thanks so much!

STEPHANIE Landregan FASLA LEED posted an update in the group The Sustainable Sites Initiative 14 years, 6 months ago

Hello Tamera,
Well, As a LEED AP, I can tell you that LEED doesn’t deal with the spaces BETWEEN the buildings on a level that is watershed centric, site planning, soils responsive. LEED does not give points for passive solutions, but favors mechanical solutions. In so many ways, LEED is very narrow, and SSI is very broad. Those are just a few…[Read more]
