Tuesdays, March 5 – April 16, 5:30 pm – 8:30 pm – Landscape Design I
This Berkshire Botanical Garden course, given in conjunction with Berkshire Community College, meets for 7 weeks at the Education Center at Berkshire Botanical Garden on Tuesdays, March 5 – April 16, 5:30 – 8:30 pm.
This design course will introduce students to the design process—the systematic way designers approach a site and client. The course will include a series of simple projects that will end with a garden designed by the students. Learn design principles such as form, balance, repetition, line, texture, color, and spatial relationships. Additionally, students will be introduced to history and how it helps the designer resolve and inspire garden design. As the adage goes, we cannot escape our history so we have to understand where we came from.
