A PLACEMAKING APPROACH TO DESIGN
Learn best practices of placemaking for land-use planning and intelligent urbanism.
The days of designing for a discrete project are numbered.
Today's most forward-thinking architects are finding it their mission to go beyond their project - in terms of both space and time - to consider, and even encourage, land-use patterns in the surrounding area, and to anticipate, and even influence, future events and unexpected consequences.
Join us for an evening of learning, followed by appetizers and drinks, where we will highlight three case studies that illustrate how to implement these placemaking practices.
Attendees will walk away with ideas on how projects can have a positive effect on both individuals and surrounding communities, while earning 1 AIA HSW LU.

More and more landscape professionals are being asked to participate in Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflows. However, migrating to BIM can be difficult, or even impossible, depending on the software you use. Join us for an evening of education and light fare and discover how firms are shortening the BIM learning curve and realizing the ROI that BIM promises. See how to easily transition from 2D drafting to 3D modeling, to working in a fully coordinated BIM workflow. Find out how you can effectively connect your design workflow, streamline project delivery, and win more work. 


Learning Objectives:
Learn the benefits and challenges of integrating BIM modeling software into a landscape studio. Explore the myths, realities, and opportunities of BIM as it relates to landscape architecture.  Understand the technology that can help you better collaborate with owners and others on the design team.  Discover the advantage of new BIM technology that is purpose-built for site and landscape design.
