As a Junior Landscape Architecture student at Temple University, the major project of the year was to design and build an exhibit for the 2019 Philadelphia Flower Show. Our class was handed a schematic plan for the overall concept and layout. My job was to create a design for a “retreat” which would come to be known as “The Roost”.
