a subgroup of ASLA Professional Practice Networks
ASLA's Professional Practice Network (PPN) on Sustainable Design and Development is a group committed to ecology-based planning and design; creating landscapes that balance the needs of mankind and the environment while benefiting both.
Our goal is to collectively advance sustainable design as it relates to landscape architecture and related fields. In this task, we seek not only to advance the theory of sustainable design, but also to find ways to qualify and quantify the sustainable nature of design choices in landscape architecture and planning.
