Congratulations to

The 2023 Capstone Class

The 2023 Capstone Class produced a range of remarkable projects that showcased their ability to synthesize all they’ve learned into compelling and highly relevant culminating presentations. Under the guidance of instructors Meg Coffee students worked tirelessly to research, analyze, and design solutions to a variety of sites in the greater Los Angeles area and beyond.

Each student prepared an oral presentation and compiled a book containing detailed site analysis and artistic renderings of their prepared concept. Capstone books are meticulously assembled to include research, design process, final design solutions and all supporting materials, and then submitted for final grades.

Oral presentations were given via Zoom over the weekend of September 9-10th and critiqued live by a panel of licensed Landscape Architects. The live Capstone Review Panel were Vaughn Rinner, FASLA, 2016 President of ASLA National, Principal Vaughn Rinner Landscape Architecture; Scott Van Sooy, Principal, Land Images; Jon Wreschinsky, ASLA.
