Landscape Architecture Students Host National Conference

January 30, 2004
Landscape architecture students from the University of Florida’s College of Design, Construction and Planning will host the 34th annual LABASH in March. LABASH is a national landscape architecture conference hosted each year by students for students. It is a great opportunity for landscape architecture students and professionals to come together and celebrate the profession.



LABASH 2004, (FLabash) will expose participants to a wide range of topics presented by a host of landscape architects and allied professionals from around the country. Invited speakers range from architects and ecologists to engineers, land specialists and graphic designers. By taking a multifaceted approach, participants will have an opportunity to broaden their understanding of the natural and cultural issues of our time.



FLabash will be held March 25 to March 28. The theme “World’s Colliding” addresses the circumstances that occur when an ecologically based world meets an urban environment. This is an issue especially prevalent in Florida, as it is one of the fastest growing states in the nation. Through planned activities such as workshops and speakers, the students hope to heighten awareness to this problem and provide creative means of solution.
