Ecological Landscape Symposium

The 24th Annual Winter Landscape Design Conference

Critical Interactions: Ecological Research into Landscape Design

Thursday and Friday, January 10 & 11, 2013

To design and manage landscapes successfully is to create symbiotic relationships between people and living systems. While these systems are highly complex, research into their interactions, patterns, and processes is robust. This conference will explore the connections between science and design and the potential for these connections to profoundly alter how we create and manage small and large scale landscapes.

Featured Speakers

Patrick Chasse, ASLA - "Skylands: Restoration of a Jens Jensen Landscape"

Donald Leopold, Ph.D. "Coordinating Design and Management of Canopy and Understory"

Kristine Boys - "A Native Lawn: Is it Possible?"
