Today’s Good Thing is a celebration of landscape architecture. We’re not talking about the Gardens of Versailles or Florence’s Bobili and Bardini Gardens.

We’re talking about projects and successes that reinvigorate, heal and encourage thought and contemplation.

As stated nicely by one of our celebrated practitioners, Maya Lin:

“I try to use the land to make you aware of your place in the landscape—to make you feel the connection between yourself and the larger environment.”
