How Should Architects + Landscape Architects Work Together? (w/ Shape Architecture + Superbloom)

A&E project collaboration sounds great–until projects go over budget, scope gets muddy, and no one's sure who's doing what.

In this episode, two award-winning design firms share how they actually make collaboration work: 
→ How to staff and structure projects across two firms 
→ How to run weekly planning and manage deadlines 
→ How to divide scope, run client meetings, and stay on track 
→ What tools to rely on: Slack, trace paper, Monograph, and more 
→ How should Architects + Landscape Architects work together?
