It's April and it's officially Landscape Architecture Month.
If you are a student studying, or thinking about studying Landscape Architecture then you mustn't forget to like the Student Landscape Institute Council on Facebook
OR book a ticket for the summer conference Generation H20 which looks at the future of our relationship with water.
It's a jam packed fun weekend and a bargain at just £55 which will include visits to various venues in London, including the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
If you have no idea what a Landscape Architect does then read this for an overview....
The idea of landscape is also discussed in the new edition of Topos
"All around the world people associate
something different with the term landscape. However, it is man who shapes
landscapes all over the globe, often changing them irrevocably, as in the case
of oil sands extraction in Canada, the mining of ore in Papua or large-scale
afforestation in China..."
– Editor Robert Schafer in the latest
Edition of Topos
If you're reading this and like landscape, like architecture, like the environment and ESPECIALLY if you are involved with landscape architecture - don't forget to help do your bit and spread the word to help ensure the development and provision of landscape architecture and it's education in the UK.
