Diacono Associates

Formerly known as Parker Diacono, Devon-based Diacono Associates is a small team led by Mark Diacono, dedicated to providing "forward thinking landscape and environmental planning solutions". The company specialises in the field of landscape character assessment and GIS, and in developing and applying LCA methods and evaluation methods for all the English and Welsh conservation agencies. The site includes information about the company and its areas of expertise, as well as sections covering current and previous projects. The overall design of the site is simple and unfussy, although the Javascript-enabled menu caused problems for the Sapling Editor's browser (IE6). [GAS, 17 Aug 2005].
