NATURE IS TO BE PRESERVED
As a Landscape Architect, I have been involved in many professional projects that related to urban planning, renovation of a historical landscape area, and tourism. What my colleagues and I always aim for is to preserve the natural landscape, environment, and habitats for the lands we touch. The ideal and the love for nature that I found during my time of working with my Senior Landscape Architect co-workers are some of my motivations to pursue this path.
