Enjoyed a thought-provoking journey as a landscape architect student, exploring how the architecture field approaches ecological principles. In the building design class, I delved into strategies for sustainable buildings, examining concepts like building ecosystems and achieving resource self-sustainability. Excited about applying these brilliant concepts in landscape architecture practices! #SustainableDesign #LandscapeArchitecture #EcologicalPrinciples

Why Should Landscape Architects? Many people don't know the important role of landscape architects, even though they can create and maintain environments that are more beautiful and valuable. Why is it more valuable? Because the presence of well-designed landscapes in an area adds value by making the area look greener, more comfortable, and aesthetically

Where energy flows, impact shows! This special edition of our Spark newsletter dives into landscape architecture with Lucy Jenkins, a chartered landscape architect specialising in nature-led design. 🌿 Lucy shares her insights on: 🔹 Sustainability in landscape projects: It's not just about planting trees! It's about understanding a site's natural resources, involving communities, and creating spaces that benefit nature and people. 🔹 Common misconceptions: Landscape projects are expensive? Not necessarily! They can be designed for long-term cost-effectiveness and environmental benefits. 🔹 The future of landscape architecture: Landscape architects will play a key role in creating spaces that can withstand the impacts of climate change, such as flooding, heat waves, and droughts. This could involve incorporating green infrastructure for rainwater management, designing for passive cooling, and restoring natural habitats.

Landscape architecture goes beyond the capabilities of architecture. More than doing no harm, we can rebuild the natural environment through our designs, stitching back together ecosystems with the use of sustainable practices. At this moment, resiliency is crucial for communities’ abilities to bounce back from climate disasters, and landscape architecture is instrumental in aiding in that regeneration. The ASLA (American Society of Landscape Architectures) speaks to resilient landscape design in this insightful article: https://loom.ly/h-mJ6ZY #LandscapeArchitecture #DWYLandscapeArchitects

As World Landscape Architecture Month draws to a close today it is important that we acknowledge and apprecitate all the contributions Landscape Architects make to keep us all connected to nature. As we continue to populate urban centres it is essential that we never lose sight of the value of landscape architecure, not only as an aesthetic but critical to the environmental health of our urban systems (increasingly our planet), as well as our mental and social well being.
