Reviews
Overall, Landscape Design is perfect as a study guide for the landscape architecture registration exam, and especially for those planning to establish their own firms for good, common sense practices. I highly recommend the instructional Professional and Practical Considerations for Landscape Design for students, emerging professionals, and those of us already working within the field as the fully comprehensive go-to resource and convenient guidebook for successful practice. I will definitely keep this superb handbook close. * Linda Velazquez, Greenroofs.com *
There are very few publications that provide the information that Cantor so comprehensively covers in this book. It is one thing to advocate for particular methods of practice, but it's another to suggest alternatives and contingencies in a such a remarkably well-organized manner. Cantor's book is made for designers young and old. * Susannah Drake, FASLA, AIA, Founding Principal of DLANDstudio *
