Nina Chandavarkar begins by recalling her interactions with architect Prabhakar Bhagwat at a time when she had very few resources to connect with fellow landscape architects.  She follows up by talking more about a few connections she made with other eminent landscape architects. Speaking of  Bangalore between 1985-1987, she speaks about the impressions that the vanishing lakes and depleting groundwater had on the landscapes of the city. She talks about her learnings about the new phenomenon and the measures she took to bridge ecology and landscape. 

She talks about collaborations with eminent architects, including B V Doshi, the Chief Horticulture Officer at Lalbagh, and more. She dwells in conversations about the large natural forest reserves and the local forest dependency culture in Orissa, sharing tales of concerning clients and research stories she could recall. Coming back to Bangalore, she talks about campus landscape projects she worked on and the intricacies involved in developing designs in tandem with ecological needs. Moreover, she moves on to respond to a question on the organic systems within structured landscape designs, especially in a large-scale project. In the context of eco-restoration, she talks about the processes involved in large projects in a way to allow the usability of spaces while she brings up a few examples.
