Twenty percent work in larger landscape architecture firms. Thirty percent work in larger mixed-discipline firms, with a concentration on landscape architecture, engineering, architecture, or design/build. Nearly 12 percent of ASLA's members work in the public sector. Less than five percent of ASLA members are fulltime educators. The remaining members are employed by private developers or work in other specialized fields. FLASLA was founded in 1959 by 11 members and associates, growing to more than 1,000 members in 10 sections, covering the state of Florida and Puerto Rico.
