Also, please ask all the questions you've ever wanted to ask a landscaper and were too afraid to ask. Is it REALLY called a "tight crotch?" What's the difference between form and habit? How do I get things to grow on my folded parametric crumple planes?

Mel Bochner "Measurement: Plant" (1969)
Early 21st C. design pedagogy and practice privilege the blurring of landscape architecture, building architecture, and urbanism. While the integration of environmental and built systems holds great promise for designers, the generalist impulse can obscure the value of specialization and experience, especially when working in the medium of living systems. This blog seeks to demystify landscape architecture, working not to reinforce differences in title, but foster mutual understanding.
