Makaira - Christopher (1)

Hello my candy hearts and paper flowers!

I hope everyone has been enjoying their internship! I know I have. I am currently in Baton Rouge working at Makaira Landscape, which is a small landscape and pool company that mostly serves single family residential homes. I’ve been working since the 21st of January. There is only one designer here, Joel, and he works as my boss for the most part. I mostly have been working on Photoshop plans and Autocad things here. Sometimes I get to sneak away on site visits. Mostly it’s just me going to a fancy house and measuring things and taking pictures. Also getting ambushed by the owners dogs. I don’t mind that too much though :3 This week, actually, I traveled to St. Francisville to survey a house and passed the Mary Ann Brown Preserve. I totally ended up visiting and eating lunch out there and it was so nice!


Here is the office space I work in! I mostly just spend time working on Photoshop and Autocad so it's pretty chill.

OJB (Houston) - Taylor - 1

I guess I'll be brave for once and post first lol. I also have nothing to do right now and everyone around me are in meetings I wasn't invited to ๐Ÿ˜ž. I started at OJB early last month, January 12, as I imagine a lot of y'all have as well. My first couple days consisted of onboarding paperwork, software setup, and getting to meet the rest of the team. Chandler, my desk buddy and the main guy who finds me things to do, had me update some rhino models and Lumion renderings to begin with. The highlight of my first week though had to be making it onto the website. I felt way too proud of that. You gotta scroll all the way down to the bottom to find me ๐Ÿ˜‚.  I began some real work doing grading studies for a clock/art installation/stage/tower/overlook over at the University of Houston. Thank God for Hayden or else I would've embarrassed myself for not knowing basic grading ๐Ÿ‘€. I modeled the thing like 15 different times as the team tried out new ideas of how to fit it into the...

Hey guys! Hope all is well at school or on your internships! Some background about where I am working for the currently, Wenk is a landscape architecture office based in Denver that works on a huge range of projects, from more urban park spaces to campus planning and tons of wetland restoration. So far, I’ve been lucky enough to work on six different projects, which has made every day feel different and exciting. A big chunk of my time has been spent on two master plan renderings. I have also been working on a community outreach presentation for a local park 2 mins from my house! Looking forward to drawing concepts this  upcoming Friday ! They’ve been both tedious and oddly relaxing at the same time. During my first week, I also got to go on a couple of site visits, which was a great way to dive in. The first visit focused on tree mitigation, where we marked which trees were being removed for a future trail and documented their condition. The next site visit was at CU Boulder’s sop...
