Landscape Design:Combining a sense of PLACE and a sense of SELF.Sarah Hoskin, based in Orange NSW, has worked as a Landscape Architect in Orange since 1995.Her role as a sole practitioner in her business Caledonian Landscapes, has allowed her the freedomto shape her business around her family as it has grown over the last 10 years, as well as the ability to follow each landscape design from first contact with the client through planning for construction,she has concentrated on design work only, from residential through to public projects. Life in the midst of family has increased Sarah’s awareness of design for living at all levels.Every project has a different user group and therefore varying requirements, as well as environmental attributes and constraints. Making the most of these attributes and being realistic about the site is where the design process can flourish and the best result can be attained.
