Editorial Submissions
Landscape Communications Inc., published the first issue of Landscape
Architect and Specifier News (LASN) in July 1985. In 1998 Landscape
Communications debuted a second publication, Landscape Contractor/Design•Build•Maintain
(LC/DBM). These publications are photographically oriented,
professional journals featuring topics of concern and state-of-the-art
projects designed or influenced by registered Landscape Architects and
Landscape Contractors worldwide.
The editorial goal of each publication is to inform and promote their
profession through feature articles on projects and new concepts in their
industry. In addition to reaching virtually every registered Landscape
Architect and Landscape Contractor in the United
States. Landscape Communication's professional readership also includes
school & campus designers, city planners, developers,
erosion control specialists, irrigation consultants, architects and golf
course architects.
Providing landscape architects timely information on design-build, water management, hardscapes, custom residential, city planning, school and campus and other topics pertinent to the profession. If you or your firm have won any awards or designed an innovative project, we'd love to showcase it in LASN.
