Dear All

I am working In Dubai,,,on my own projects ,,,,,and I am looking for ,,,landscaping hand sketchers ,,,and landscape architect ….please send what do u have to the following e mail kiwanlandscape@gmail.com

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.

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

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

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.

Greet links, they helped a lot on a recent project. Thanks!
 

Thanks for your photos Chris.  Deadrick street looks great!
Kevin– yes, we are installing planters over storm inlets. 
Any feedback is appreciated.

Does anyone have the/a syllabus/structure handout for portfolio compilation from 449Professional Practice?

Alternatively/Additionally any good resources/advice for portfolio compilation?

Are you talking about installing a planter over a storm inlet, or a storm line? 

We are designing stormwater bioretention planters for a downtown.  We want to place a planter where a storm drain currently exists.  Can a planter be designed over a storm drain and be an effective bioretention measure — i.e. slowing down rainwater but not completely infiltrating?  Appreciate any input.

We are seeking resumes for a 5-6 year experience Landscape Architect/ designer for our busy Buffalo, NY office. Info found at http://www.JKLAstudio.com

John, thanks for sharing.  Do you have any site photos, from these projects, that you’re able to post here?

If anybody here has done any public work involving raingardens in Florida let me know! Since I have been working for my firm here in Tampa we have completed 4 to 5 significant “raingarden” type projects; one of them being a LAP FDOT streetscape for Tarpon Springs. Public work involving stormwater management in a creative way is far and few…[Read more]
