What is the difference between a landscape architect, landscape contractor, and a landscape designer?
i am interested and would like to know more such as salary, job description, education needed, etc...
Architect: Handle design aspects, and any big project will have at lest one to sign off on the plans. This is because they have a formal education. They tend to work for a design firm, and pay wise they typically get more then the other groups.
Designer: Also handles design aspects. Education ranges from little(enough to produce plans) to not quite an architect. They typically work for a contractor, under an architect at a firm, or freelance. Pay can range from meh to descent. (these are the people that have caused thousands to slave at keeping plants ill-suited for a climate alive in it.)
Contractor: The people that make the design happen. Lest required education as only the on site boss needs to know how to read the plans, and explain it to the workers. Also has the lowest pay as the lowest bid gets the contract in most cases.
