World Landscape Architecture Month 2023

In honor of World Landscape Architecture Month, we are shining the spotlight on our team of talented landscape architects & their dedication to WGI, as well as positively impacting our communities through their empowering designs.

World Landscape Architecture Month (WLAM), was established by the American Associate of Landscape Architects and takes place each April.

The intent of  WLAM, is to celebrate the talented professionals in the Landscape Architecture profession, whose contributions to WGI, our communities, and to making our world a better, more beautiful place!

World Landscape Architecture Month allows for a global showcasing of nature and creative design among landscape architects, and WGI’s team of professionals are certainly no strangers to the center stage.

History of Landscape Architecture

The term ‘Landscape Architecture’ was originated in “The Landscape Architecture of the Great Painters of Italy“, a book written by Gilbert Laing Meason. It is both unique and impressive, that over a century later the term remains highly relevant throughout the profession and the world.

In the 19th century, Frederick Olmstead came to be known as the “Father of American Landscape Architecture.” He is most famous for designing New York’s Central Park grounds and his work on the U.S Capitol in Washington, D.C.
