yeah. i hope this takes off. see how many of us are out there and what the work looks like. I think i might add a bunch of our images to get the ball rolling…

Looks good, I hope more people post their work.

Hi Barlow…hmmmmmmm sweeping statement, but none the less there is some merit in what you say, but surely it is not simply an american[USA] problem. I guess it depends on whose work you are looking at, and at what stage they are at in their careers. It takes time to develop individuality.

Dear Brandon and others;
Why are all american sketches the same and why are all american designs the same? It’s like copy – paste.

hi justin…why dont you look at landscape park duisburg nord in german…maybe it will help you for your case study

i am a landscape architecture student working on my senior project, which is a brownfield site ( old glass manufacture), and curious to see if any one had unique design, mitigation techniques and or a case study or to i should look in to.

Nice group. I look forward to sharing in discussion

Great design is what is around us ,the natural environment.. the Japanese landscape artists were tryig to copy and paste it their own home environment..there are aslo a lot of superb details in nature.. every single thing could be taken as a sample.. a good design should inspire arstists, poets, composers, and manipulate people’s mind in a way…[Read more]

Does anyone have any interesting LID or Water Sensitive Urban Design projects they have been working on?

I just picked up a handful of Blick markers. Are they any good? I’ve used AD and Prismacolor, are these better, worse, or about the same?

The greatest designer is normal people—the best cities in the world were not designed.
