Thank you very much for the support!
It means a lot for TROP, a tiny studio in the middle of nowhere, ha ha.

First, congrats you for the coming graduation!
I must say that you have a great idea, even though I don’t understand much of how Non-profit firm works.

In Thailand, we rarely have community park in each neighborhood.
When one is lucky enough to get some money, the project usually is designed by government’s officials or someone who…[Read more]

Of course, there are many firms that needs foreign talents like yourself.
Some big firms got their branches in China now, EDAW and Belt Collins for example.
I don’t know about the economy issue right now, but a lot of Thai designers are working in the area.

A bit of history though…..

Every famous landscape architect uses him.
Hargreaves started using him years ago.
Then Pete Walker.
Even SWA!!
His rendering is superb. A master in his own style!!!

At GSD, some studios require a team work, because there is soooo much information.
Design-wise, I prefer individual work, because each student will have freedom to explore what he/she is interested.
Both are good anyway though….

The other big reason for that is salary issue.
New landscape architect, coming out of undergrad degree, usually gets about 4-600 US$ a month.
While is Singapore and Hongkong, they will get 3-4 times that amount.
Living cost is different, and plays an important factor for that salary difference.
Thailand’s living cost is much much…[Read more]

If you just graduate, in my oipnion, I think you better look for the firm that can give you good experience first.
No way you can pay your debt in your first couple years.
Why don’t you work with famous designers, learn your lessons, and finally work on…[Read more]
