EDITORIAL

75! LA Journal’s special issue celebrates its 75th print since it started in 2001. It has been a fascinating, roller-coster journey, and we are immensely thankful to each one of you for your constant love and support for making this possible. The issue has been curated with a collection of exciting ideas about a diverse set of interests — landscape design, art & architecture, ecology & environment, photography, and landscape archaeology — from contributing authors with a distinct set of knowledge, experience, and exposure of the world.
