The Placemakers Academy Landscape Design Course
A fabulous home landscape should fit the homeowner like a glove. To craft a truly customized home landscape design, it takes collaboration between the homeowner and the designer. Wouldn’t it be incredible if you had a landscape designer’s lexicon and perspective to guide you in this collaboration? Welcome to the Placemakers Academy. Mary Palmer Dargan distilled her forty-five and counting years as a maestro landscape architect into an online course for all of her clients and community to enjoy. Train your designer’s eye and transform the way you see your land. Become the expert of your own garden and communicate your new vision with ease. You can confidently enter the design process with Dargan Landscape Architects on the same page, ready to write an incredible garden story. You can learn more about the academy here:
The Placemakers Academy Landscape Design Immersion Program
How Does the Immersion Program Work?
Each week, for eleven weeks, we will cover a stop on the road map to designing and implementing the garden of your dreams! Every Thursday at noon, we will meet over Zoom for an exclusive Garden Talk Salon. We will reinforce the essence of that week’s module with real life examples, visualizations, tips & tricks of the pros, as well as a live Q&A session to get all of your burning questions answered in real time.
We will share our progress with each other each week, getting feedback on our designs as we go. To celebrate our garden victories, we enjoy a live graduation party in Cashiers, North Carolina!
