Topic: Design tools for sustainable solutions in your garden and home


As a design-builder, guided by principles of cradle-to-cradle thinking in land, water and “waste” management projects, I’ve found a common challenge in converting great ideas, to on-the-ground solutions, is the design process. What will these solutions look like? How will they work on this site? This talk will use the case study of rainwater harvest systems, to help you answer some of these questions, and create systems that truly suit your home and landscape needs. This will be an introduction to some free, user-friendly design tools (e.g. Sketchup and Google Earth) and tips and tricks on how they can be used to design rainwater harvest and other projects on you wish list.
