Chris Hite FASLA will present the first edition of the OUTSIDE Sustainable Landscaping Design Pattern Book for Single Family Homes. Its purpose is to exemplify sustainable residential landscape practices and thereby support the development community and the landscape industry in the creation of sustainable landscapes at the residential lot level. The pattern book focuses on the general objective that landscapes should be designed to promote soil fertility, maximize community and ecological amenities, and minimize/eliminate irrigation, fertilizer, pesticide, and other supplemental inputs while preserving important commercial objectives for appearance and feasibility of the landscapes.
Chris Hite led a team of professional Landscape Architects and student interns in the creation of this first edition of the OUTSIDE Sustainable Landscape Design Pattern Book for Single Family Homes. In this session Chris and other team members will present the pattern book with attendees and share their perspectives on how this resource could be utilized to promote the adoption of sustainable landscape practices in Florida.
