Planners know the value of good urban design. But knowing is one thing. Showing is another — and that takes a specialized set of skills. No budget to hire graphics consultants for your design proposals? No problem. Turn your ideas into images with help from this hands-on Planners Training Service workshop.
 
Popular presenter Emily Talen, FAICP, reviews urban design principles like connectivity, proximity, and mix. Then she shows how tools like GIS, Sketchup, and graphic design software can make those principles jump off the page. Seeing is believing! You'll learn to create more persuasive proposals that help your community visualize the changes ahead. 
 
This workshop is co-sponsored by APA Illinois Chapter.
