Rationale: Why is this case interesting?

This case is interesting because it has an alpine theme. This planting design replaced an area that was covered with construction debris. It creates an area of interest with the boulders mixed with the plantings. This picture was taken in the middle of October. The Russian sage has already been trimmed back so there aren't any purple flowers now. The plants have many different textures and shades of green. The Black-eyed Susan s with their yellow flowers are still blooming. This design relates to the area because Sandpoint is surrounded with mountains. I live in the area so that's how it relates to my life in a mountain setting.

Author's perspective

From which professional background/perspective are your documenting this case?

Landscape and/or urban context of your case

  • Bio-geography, cultural features, overall character, history and dynamics
  • Illustration: Map; sketches; short descriptive analyses

Analytical drawings

Please add four analytical sketches/drawings (or montages/schemes) of your case and take the following aspects into account:

  • natural dynamic versus cultural framework - in how far do these two forces come together in your case?
  • dynamic through the year (you may imagine how the site looks in spring and summer, maybe you also remember it)
  • highlight potentials and problems


Projective drawings

  • Please add four projective sketches/drawings (or montages/schemes) for your case and take the following aspects into account:
    • How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)
    • And how could it look like in 10-15 years?


Summary and conclusion

Please summarize your case and give arguments for your projective design (approx 150 words).

You may add a series of images/photos in addition to the sketches/drawings
