Does anyone have any good recommendations for a School that offers a Masters in a field similar to Landscape Architecture (or LA is acceptable), with a program that focuses on Social function of the landscape as well as Ecology. I already have my B…
I am always curious of the motivation behind sketching a specific element or study. This is a great example of one, nice though process. So... for other examples what drives you to go out and sketch a site?
Good work work... graphics are great on the larger projects. What of the large campus did you focus on?
It would be great to see how you are going to lay this all out in a presentation
Thanks Ryan. Yeah, those graphics were for the Garden Festival competition last Fall ['08]. It was part of our construction implementation studio. It was a really fun project. Didi you participate in the competition?
hey Ryan... thanks for the comment on my thesis project and sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. A main recurring question I had over the course of the year was how important is it for us as LAs to show people processes in the landscape? I had trouble making the spaces that dealt with remediation (water or soil) really speak to the process of cleansing. Phytoremediation is invisible... so can we make that process visible?
that's great you'll be using phytoremediation in your project... any idea where or what type of brownfield your site is going to be?
I think u have to see the usual Gaudi spots:
Park Guell, Sagrada Familia, la Pedrera Haus,
then the Ramblas, a walk through the barrio Gotico
also visit the the Barceloneta (great for sketching if you like urban life) and the Villa olimpica.. for new projects... Believe me u will love Barcelona, Check also the last Woddy Allen Film : Vicky Christina Barcelona to arrive in the right mood
