LAEP Speaker Series: Simon Bussiere, How to Frame Your Dragon: A Concept in Five Parts
Lecture/Readings
About the Lecture Ok designers: How do you CONCEPT? Like us, every project is unique. Every site, situation, and problem-field can bewilder and delight. Yet you need to begin, somehow. The blank page can be scary, while too much data can paralyze. [AHHHH!, it's a Dragon!] ------------- In light of the danger ahead, what then are the first critical steps you should take to bring your new ideas out of obscurity? While you take initial action and gain momentum, how do you communicate a systematic process persuasively enough to get others on board? How do you give a voice to the quiet wisdom of your personal values and professional principles? How do you connect people and add social, cultural, and ecological value? Therein lies the path to potential "success" in my experience. The ability to see and describe key information despite [and through] the inherent complexity of contemporary landscape architectural practice is a learned skill. This talk will explore those early moments of conceptual struggle and move us together toward a set of useful tools and possible approaches required to frame design opportunities. You'll be riding your dragons in no time.
