Danilo Maffei talks with us in this episode about his work and his outlook for our industry. Danilo is the founder and principal of Maffei Landscape Design in Pennsylvania. He has a background in public horticulture, landscape contracting, education and civic leadership. He specializes in conceiving and creating outdoor places that are meaningful, relevant and responsive to the specific conditions in which they are set. His philosophy is to "gather experiences, not thing", noting that "objects alone do not make a garden better". Danilo also dedicates his time to students of design and horticulture as a speaker and instructor for the Professional Horticulture Program and Continuing Education at Longwood Gardens and Mt. Cuba Center and other organizations across the country. He also lends his experience to the world-renowned Philadelphia Flower Show and recently to The Northwest Flower & Garden Festival as a judge. He has served in many volunteer and elected leadership roles including President of the Board of Directors of the Association of Professional Landscape Designers (APLD), President of Borough Council of Kennett Square and Chair of its Historical Architectural Review Board and President of the Professional Gardeners Alumni Association of Longwood Gardens. -
