Noted landscape architect Claude Cormier passed away in September from cancer. The Cultural Landscape Foundation published a tribute to his work and influence which is well worth the read. https://www.tclf.org/canadian-landscape-architect-claude-cormier-designer-innovative-and-playful-public-spaces-dies-63 His Massachusetts link was a year at the Harvard Graduate School of Design. TCLF is creating a video oral history about Cormier which it intends to release in 2024. Read about it HERE. He will be remembered as a great talent, and his public projects will, hopefully, be a continuing joy to those who visit them. Gardens as we know are ephemeral – do take the opportunity, if you are able, to visit some of these incredible spaces. Below: Love Park, Toronto, 2023 – Photo © CCxA
