For thousands of years, we have enjoyed beautifying our surroundings. From the earliest recorded gardens of the Egyptians in 3000 BC. to today's landscaping, the principles of unity, balance, proportion, and variety remain as the basic design tools of landscape architects, designers, and nursery professionals. The best examples are those whose designs accomplish the central objective of landscaping - to bring the building and its surroundings into harmony. But achieving harmony in some aspects can result in conflict in others. This website was designed to serve as a resource for those concerned with minimizing the impact of wildfire in areas where dwellings abut forests - often referred to as the wildland-urban interface. Please browse through the sections, at left, to learn more about firewise landscaping techniques.
