We developed workflows to work remotely because of COVID, but it turns out that they’re great for designing landscapes that are impractically distant. This design would have stuck us in the car for about five hours.
This composite image uses multiple data sources, plus input from our client, to create something “close enough” for a conceptual design.
Once we had a couple of concepts, we put everything together into a “sketchbook” pdf file, letter size, so they could print it out, check dimensions on site and look at building the new design.
In the past, we could have taken advantage of getting far away from the office, but for now overnight trips to Mendocino are uncertain.
