WEST LAFAYETTE, IN (November 15, 2024) – The Living Landscapes podcast, hosted by undergraduate and graduate student staff with the Purdue University Center for Community & Environmental Design (CCED), launches today. This podcast delves into the fascinating world of landscape architecture, exploring how this field can help create thriving communities and sustainable environments. Listeners can expect to learn about innovative design approaches, cutting-edge research, and inspiring stories of community engagement.
The CCED has been providing design and planning support to communities since 1976. The center seeks to partner with Midwest communities to develop solutions addressing social and ecological issues. The CCED also provides design solutions grounded in research, regional analysis, and environmental design. “This is a student-driven initiative based on their desire to share and explore environmental design with the larger community,” says the Director of the CCED, Dr. Aaron Thompson. “I’m excited to provide my staff the opportunity to engage in conversations exploring the many ways that landscape architecture can positively impact the world.”
