The difference between graduating as a landscape architect in the late 20th century and in the early 21st century is only 30-40 years however the changes that have occurred in in that timeframe including technology, communications and globalisation have been enormous. The opportunities to work or be educated around the globe have increased. How has this affected our learning, understanding and practice and what will happen in the future and how can we as a profession be prepared for it?

  • I have asked the speakers to reflect on what it was like at the beginning of

their careers and how it is now – what were then challenges then and what are they now?

  • How has learning or working abroad influenced the development of their

practice?

  • What do we need to do to ensure the longevity of the profession and what

are the key trends moving forward?

Janet Benton

Director & Landscape Architect -Benton Scott-Simmons

Janet has worked for over thirty years in landscape architecture and urban design, initially for various private practices and then for 14 years as a sole trader before co-founding Benton Scott-Simmons in 2014. Janet first studied life sciences and subsequently undertook a Masters in Landscape Architecture at Edinburgh University. Upon graduation she left the UK for New York and was fortunate to gain her first landscape architect position at a prominent Manhattan

  • practice. That experience sparked an interest in an interdisciplinary design approach that

has underpinned all her subsequent work as a landscape architect. On leaving the US, Janet worked in the south of England and the Far East before returning to Scotland to take a post in Glasgow, where she has worked ever since. In addition to her main UK-based portfolio, she has been fortunate to continue to work on overseas projects from her base in Scotland, including in Libya, China, South Korea, Japan and Indonesia.
