"Designing Our Future" campaign kicks off National Landscape Architecture Month
15 Apr, 2010 LDB Solutions
To celebrate April as National Landscape Architecture Month, the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) has announced a new campaign titled “Designing Our Future.” The campaign is designed to educate the public about sustainable landscapes and landscape architecture as a career choice — part of a new site.
April encompasses Earth Day on April 22 and the birthday of Frederick Law Olmsted on April 26, founder of the American landscape architecture profession. Landscape architects design and plan spaces ranging from public parks, campuses, streetscapes, resorts, all the way to single family homes.
“More than ever, we must recognize that the space between, on top of and around buildings is as important — if not more — in creating a sustainable world,” says ASLA President Gary Scott, FASLA. “This April I hope people will learn the role landscape architects play in ‘Designing Our Future.’”
