It must be April, because everywhere you look online is an article about landscape architecture. April, of course, is ASLA?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?s Landscape Architecture Month and the focus is educating young people about careers in the profession. It also doesn?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?t hurt that these articles help people (including the media) get a firmer grasp on what landscape architects do.
We noted on landscapearchitect.com that ASLA initiated multimedia spots on landscape architecture by Eddie George, the 1995 Heisman Trophy winner and former star NFL running back. Mr. George is a landscape architect and owner of The EDGE Group, with offices in Columbus, Ohio, and Nashville, Tenn. Papers across the country have picked up this release.
Here are a few more examples of coverage for landscape architecture:
The Boulder dailycamera reported on the impact of Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. on the landscape of Boulder, Colo. The paper reports he rode around town on a bicycle in the spring of 1908 to gather his vision before publishing a 106-page plan for the city.
The Boston Globe did a piece on the greenroof at ASLA headquarters in Washington, D.C., explaining the benefits of these roof designs and also mentioning Landscape Architecture Month.
The University of Arkansas at Fayetteville printed garden tips from Carl Smith, a landscape architecture professor at the University of Arkansas School of Architecture and author of the new book Residential Landscape Sustainability: A Checklist Tool.
The Seattle Daily Journal presented an article by University of Washington landscape architecture faculty members Jamie Fleckenstein and Chad Wichers on design charettes.
The University of Rhode Island just completed a lecture series on landscape architecture with Patricia O’Donnell, principal of Heritage Landscapes, speaking on how landscape architects enhance urban life.
Even the U.K.?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?s Earthtimes.org printed a piece on L.A. Month, picked up from the ASLA news release via the PR Newswire.
