I have sections 3 &4 left to take; unfortunately it seems that Florida ASLA is not currently offering a LARE Review. Given that I will be required to travel out of state to attend a review, does anyone have any recommendations in regards to who does offer a good LARE review or who I should avoid?

Leo – Thank you for the information…this will help a lot. I saw the survey on Bayt.com but all the salaries were blocked from my viewing. I am currently research cost of living as well, it seems to be fairly equal to the U.S.
Thanks again, Kelly

If possible Luke, I would recommend travel sketches over travel photography. I find sketching to be a more sought after, rare skill. Furthermore, sketches reveal more about what you are looking at and how you interpret a scene. I’ve brought personal sketchbooks to interviews that demonstrate the range of activities I do, where I’ve been, and my…[Read more]

The Illinois chapter of ASLA is looking for a landscape sketch artist to teach a sketch / rendering class in Chicago in the Spring of 2013. Any artist / designer who is interested in teaching a class please contact me at mbarcelos@valleycrest.com and we can discuss fees and travel accomodations.

Thank you very much for your comment Glenn, I enjoy designing spaces for people a loooottt, and feel fortunate to be in LA. Just getting a bit impatient about finding a LA job lol.

Kai, I would say keep it to one page. That is what I always try to do. Cutting out something less important every time I have something to add to it. Although if you feel you have enough pertinent material to add, do so. But definitely no longer than 2 pages. I personally like the one pager.

Might take a while, all I can say is stick with it if…[Read more]

The vertical walls based on hydroponics are fundamentally unsustainable.They rely on constant monitoring by humans, they are artificial lige supporting systems unless they are fully emulating conditions that exist in nature which is rare. Unless a system is developed that invites spontaneous colonisation by plants – like porous sponge ceramics or…[Read more]
