Regenerative Garden Design Sketchbook

Design across time rather than in a single plan. What the bed looks like in year one, year three, year five.

Regenerative practice is about trajectory, so a static plan misses the point. The sketchbook format forces the sequence and makes succession visible.

The page has the sketchbook structure, the principles with brief explanations, and three time horizons to draw. It also asks what maintains the trajectory once the designer leaves, which is the honest weakness of most such plans and a question students should meet before they meet it professionally.
