Design for Life: Basics and Local Examples
Presenter | Nathalie Shanstrom, Pasque Ecologica Design and Consulting
After a brief introduction on how to design with native plants, this presentation will use a range of case studies to illustrate by example how to design with native plants to: maximize sustainability and ecological function, draw out the beauty of regional landscapes, and create functional spaces that foster healthy, invigorating, meaningful connections between people and their environment. A range of examples of varying scales, context, and site uses will be included to show how the design process can vary from site to site.
