Land F/X University Rep and Usage Technician Amanda Berry is fired up to give her lunch-and-learn presentation at CELA 2019.
Overview: Engaging Students in CAD Design Using Land F/X
Landscape architecture students will use a variety of software platforms over their careers. The industry is trending toward BIM, and this trend will inevitably continue as software continues to evolve. For landscape architecture, BIM means the use of specific tools and smart objects – as in placing "trees," "sprinklers," and "walls" rather than generic CAD blocks and lines.
Presented by Amanda Berry
Land F/X Usage Support
Land F/X has established itself as the premier BIM platform in the landscape architecture field, with more than half of all firms using it as an add-on to AutoCAD, SketchUp, Rhino, and/or Revit. It proves equally valuable in an academic setting, where the use of smart, industry-specific software helps focus instruction on design principles and methodologies rather than mundane and archaic CAD commands. This presentation by Amanda Berry will demonstrate these capabilities and show why they are imperative tools for today's students and tomorrow's design professionals.

Not Your Father's AutoCAD: Bringing CAD Drafting into the Future of Landscape Architecture
If you're only drafting using the tools that come with AutoCAD, you're using a workflow from two decades ago. This session will introduce the essential tools that have evolved inside the Land F/X plugin for AutoCAD and SketchUp since then. Land F/X has evolved from a start-up established by a father and son in a garage into a widely used landscape architecture tool. Among its many features are a massive plant and site amenity database, ready-to-use symbols, colorization tools, and the ability to import a CAD drawing into a 3D model. All these features have been developed based on suggestions from landscape architects who use the software every day. Created based on the presenter's father's need for landscape architecture tools within AutoCAD, Land F/X speeds up the daily tasks of thousands of landscape architects worldwide.

Rendering in AutoCAD and SketchUp with Land F/X
The best way to communicate your design intent to a client or the public is through colorful plan and 3D renderings. The level to which you take your renderings is only limited by the time you've budgeted to complete the task. This session will cover the tools Land F/X adds to AutoCAD and SketchUp to take renderings further within those programs in a few clicks. We'll show you how to spend less time creating a great rendering and, as a result, reduce your reliance on time-sucking post-production rendering software.
Are you stuck on how to travel to Maryland? Being far from Maryland is no excuse! I did the trek from Toronto to New Orleans one year. It's not too late firm up your travel plans. Here's how:
- 1. Find your travel buddy. Traveling to conferences becomes cheaper and cheaper as the group going grows larger and larger. At the University of Guelph, we organized coach buses or several smaller van rentals to cut down on travel costs, which helped more people afford to go and reduced the cost even more! Sharing a hotel room also helps. Maybe a travel company in your area can help you organize your trip to find even more savings.
- 2. Bump up the learning potential. For that Toronto to New Orleans LABash 2007 trip, we made a few stops along the way to Delaware Park designed by Frederick Law Olmsted in Buffalo, and to Fallingwater in Pennsylvania by Frank Lloyd Wright.
- 3. Ask your landscape architecture program to help fund the travel costs. If you're following suggestions 1 & 2 above, you might be meeting some requirements for department funding!
- 4. Ask your professors to consider arranging project due dates to allow students to attend without missing a deadline. LABash is, after all, one of the best educational conferences LA students can attend!
See you there!

Krystal and Jeremiah have returned from Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE), where they represented Land F/X at the Future Landscape & Public Realm conference – and where Jeremiah gave a talk about CAD-based planting and irrigation design. We won’t make them work too hard until the jet lag wears off!
In the meantime, check out all their travel photos on our Facebook page.
