Landscape Design Workshop

Workshops are presented to green industry groups at their location. In effect, it becomes YOUR program to offer to your members. It can be a pre-conference activity, incorporated within a conference, or a standalone event. Contact us for pricing and logistics.

In this two to three day workshop, you will create a landscape design from start to finish. Day One begins with a review of design principles and a discussion of goals for the Workshop. Students are expected to then apply these concepts to a design they create over a two- or three-day period. At the end of the class, each student will present his or her design solution and the class will have a chance to see how others approached the project.


Requirements

This class is geared toward designers with at least 2 years of professional landscape design experience. Beginners will have a difficult time.
