This project revolves around the issue of water waste in Utah and the Intermountain West. Doing research into how Utah residents spend water, I found that people use most of their potable water on their landscape. Working with landscape architects, I created several deliverables on the subject such as a booklet outlining the benefits of water-wise landscaping and how to change to a drought tolerant yard from the basic grass lawns that adorn the front of most Utah homes. I also created several illustrations of water savvy plants that can be used in such a landscape and put them in the booklet with alists of several plants grouped into hydrozones. I also used the illustrations to create a beautiful poster series. The overall feel of the project was successful in being grounded in research with a botanical edge and a beautiful and delicate design.
