Paul Busse
After graduating from The Ohio State University in 1972 with a Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture, Paul G. Busse formed his own company specializing in creative outdoor living spaces. By 1984, he officially added garden railroads to his company¡¯s repertoire, and in 1991 he formed Applied Imagination. A synthesis of Paul¡¯s artistic abilities, this new company combined his life-long passion for model trains, landscaping, and distinctive use of plant material to develop the unique concept of ¡°botanical architecture.¡±
Paul¡¯s vision has helped transform institutions across the United States, significantly boosting attendance and appreciation for the natural world with each installation. From Paul: "I think I¡¯ve always loved the challenge. I¡¯ve been asked which is my favorite job, my answer is always ¡®the next one.¡¯ I¡¯m so blessed that I¡¯ve found a job where the bottom line is to make people happy. I¡¯m selling happy art. It can¡¯t be better than that."
