It is often overlooked how isolating the landscape experience can be for autistic minds. Many people in the autistic community desire outdoor spaces where they feel safe and able to connect with others.

This unique trail is geared toward autism families and building confidence in outdoor spaces.

In today's episode, we are hearing from Monique Allen, the founder of the Garden Continuum and design-build and care company. She would typically be described as a landscaper/ a contractor/ or an installer. I chose to release this episode after the 2022 ASLA conference and the COP27 conference have wrapped because, our dedication to creating a greener world, heavily relies on the people who build the projects we envision.
In our conversation, we discuss the experience of working in an industry that is historically unbalanced in work/life, masculine/feminine, and in access to education. As landscape architects, it is important to understand how our allied fields perceive us and our work. If you take anything away from today's episode, I hope it is learning how to collaborate in order to create a better future and landscape for us all.
Monique has dedicated her career to creating an alternative approach and sharing actionable information on how to spread a positive message about how we can all improve our land, our lives, and our professional satisfaction through her book and method titled Life-Scaping and compassionate business building.

In this episode, we are speaking with Chris Landau, the principal of LANDAU Design + Technology. He is an artist who has found himself immersed in the world of landscape architecture. In addition to computational design and visualization, the firm developed an innovative design tool called Land Kit. It is an algorithmic design tool that helps improve landscape designers’ workflows and assist in complex design situations. We discuss integrating technology into the design process, the importance of small risks, and how improving processes gives designers more time to be themselves, which is ultimately great for the profession. The newest version of Land Kit (1.1) is available now!

Today we explore the interdisciplinary work of Ana Maria Torres of AT Architects! Landscape architects and architects work together very often and can share similar project goals. However, the difference in practice can leave a lot of miscommunication or missed opportunities. In this episode, we explore Ana Maria's approach to architecture and how she embraces other disciplines to inform her work. Please join us as we discuss the culture of design, the importance of travel, and the beauty of working with others.

Hello everyone! Are you ready to visit the farm? Today we are joined by Janelle Soja - a multigenerational regenerative farmer based in Northeast Ohio. She was my first stop in trying to understand where agriculture starts and landscape architecture ends- especially in identifying ways to mitigate climate change impacts on the land. Both professions/sciences are curating the ways that people interact with landscapes and I believe that we have a lot that we can learn from one another. I hope that you enjoy this episode and learn as much as we did.
