An Approach to Creative Design
Each winter, for the past several years, Duncan Brine has led a popular seminar at the New York Botanical Garden.
Discover a contextual approach to shaping landscape and garden space. A design method
is outlined which bases decision-making on the characteristics of the site, not conventional
style or structure. Topics include connecting spaces, the relationship between background and foreground, transparency, and framing views. The instructor illustrates his talk with images of his 6-acre naturalistic garden.
Instructor: Duncan Brine
Friday, February 24, 2012, 10am – 12pm
If you’re able to get to this class, consider following it with lunch on Arthur Ave. or a stroll through the garden (weather permitting).
