Not many out there but I think would help to focus the discussion. Not that interested in what’s ‘hip’. Trying to keep a long view. No offense to the fashionistas. ps…[Read more]

Nice Craig! I wish we all could take a few years to pursue our dreams. Do you think your time on the bikes or with your bass has changed how you think/ work at Landscape Architecture?

While a practicing licensedlandscpe architect here in Los Angeles…I took 5 years off to pursue a dream…..I roadraced motocycles. AMA superbike class….yeah a bit different. I also played bass guitar in some LA punk bands.

Great concept! I look forward to being a part of it!

Hello all.. Any plant buffs out there have experience with Panicum virgatum ‘heavy metal’ or ‘Northwind’ in the SF bay area?  Based on the zone specs it should be fine but my broker hasn’t sold too many of them and couldn’t comment on how they perform in the area… any help would be appreciated.

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

I was wondering what sites residential designers use to find certain products or materials. Let’s say you want to find certain types of outdoor porcelain tiles, sculptures, water features, etc. Are there sites out there that are relevant for us to use? And if so, would anyone like to share these?

David, I love your common sense approach!!!
