Landscape Architect Dennis Pappas Opens Up in Candid Online Interview
New York, US, 14th May 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Acclaimed landscape architect Dennis Pappas is the focus of a new in-depth online interview, offering a rare and thoughtful look into the mindset behind some of New York City’s most impactful green infrastructure projects. Known for his work on the Brooklyn Green Corridor and NYC’s first carbon-neutral rooftop garden, Pappas uses the conversation to reflect not just on his accomplishments—but on the values, lessons, and personal experiences that have shaped his career.
In the wide-ranging Q&A, Pappas discusses everything from urban failure to emotion in public space design. “People connect to places emotionally,” he says. “If you remove that layer, you end up with cold, forgettable spaces. Emotion is the part that sticks.”
The interview goes beyond project highlights, touching on the often overlooked tools of the trade, such as time, public trust, and creativity within constraints. “I think of time as a design material,” Pappas explains. “How a space changes over years—that’s part of the design.”
Other topics include:
-
The overlooked value of urban rooftops
-
Adapting cities for climate extremes
-
His approach to working with both government and private developers
-
Why failure is essential to innovation in design
Pappas also shares his hopes for the next generation of urban planners and communities: “I hope they see cities not as places that take from nature, but as places that work with it.”
The full interview is available now at the website here, providing readers with both practical insight and personal reflection from one of the city’s most respected landscape architects.

Dennis Pappas is a Brooklyn-based landscape architect with over 20 years of experience creating sustainable, inclusive urban spaces.

NSabers Releases New Line of Custom-Built Lightsabers for Performance and Display
Hong Kong, Hong Kong, 14th May 2025 – NSabers, a manufacturer of custom-designed lightsabers, has announced the launch of a new product line featuring performance-grade construction, modular electronics, and personalized configurations. The release expands the company’s existing catalog and reflects its focus on producing high-tolerance saber props suitable for both display and active use.
The new product series includes multiple models that incorporate advanced electronics, durable external components, and options for programmable behavior. These products have been engineered to support gesture controls, multi-color blade profiles, and onboard audio synchronized with motion detection. The line introduces updated chassis designs that improve accessibility for service and customization while maintaining compatibility with existing mounting standards.
The collection features sabers equipped with Xenopixel and Proffie soundboard systems—two widely adopted platforms within the saber-building community. Both options allow for tailored audio and lighting configurations. The sabers include polycarbonate blades designed to absorb repeated contact while preserving internal electronics. Each product has undergone internal quality checks prior to release to verify operational integrity and mechanical resilience under dueling conditions.
Design and Construction
According to NSabers, the development of this collection included consultations with engineers, independent testers, and frequent customers to ensure a balance between form and function. The hilts are machined from aluminum alloy and are available in a variety of lengths, diameters, and textures. Surface finishes include brushed metal, anodized matte tones, and selective accents that differentiate models in the series.
The internal electronics are modular and serviceable, with an emphasis on reliability. Battery units are rechargeable via standardized ports, and boards are configured to support file-based customization. Hilt interiors follow a compartmentalized layout to facilitate sound resonance, wiring protection, and ease of upgrades.
Product Configuration and Options
NSabers offers the new line with several configuration tiers. Entry-level options are built around RGB core boards and are capable of basic lighting and sound. Intermediate models feature pre-loaded sound fonts, gesture-based ignition, and color cycling. The upper-tier models include SD card access for firmware changes, multichannel audio outputs, and programmable blade behavior.
Customers can select between multiple blade lengths and thicknesses depending on their intended use. The company notes that its default blades are constructed from impact-rated polycarbonate and come with a threaded retention mechanism to reduce vibration during movement. Additional hilt accessories, blade plugs, and charging equipment are sold separately.
Intended Use and Audience
The sabers are designed to accommodate several use cases, including stage choreography, personal collection, and community exhibitions. NSabers has indicated that it expects this product series to appeal to experienced users who seek precision hardware, as well as to new users seeking configurable products that do not require modification.
All models in the line conform to standard safety requirements for rechargeable consumer electronics. The company recommends use by individuals aged 14 and above and states that protective gear should be worn for any full-contact activity involving the products.
Background and Development
NSabers was established with the aim of providing detailed saber replicas and performance props to an international audience. The company is based in Hong Kong and operates through a direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform. Products are assembled and tested on-site and distributed globally through partnered shipping providers.
The company reports that this latest release is the outcome of several months of iterative design and material testing. Updates from prior product cycles include improved speaker housing, more efficient power management, and increased compatibility with third-party blade components. In addition to hardware updates, the new line supports open-source configuration standards, allowing advanced users to integrate custom code or third-party sound fonts if desired.
Packaging and Distribution
All sabers in the new line are packaged in protective foam casings and shipped in reinforced cartons. The contents of each package are listed in advance, and users may request optional assembly or disassembly depending on local shipping regulations. NSabers maintains documentation for all models on its website, including operational guides, safety instructions, and firmware references.
Shipping coverage currently includes North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and select countries in South America and the Middle East. Orders are fulfilled from the Hong Kong distribution center, and average delivery times range from 7 to 14 business days depending on region.
Support and Resources
The company provides technical support via email and online forms. Replacement parts and upgrades for previously released models remain available on the NSabers website. All electronics are covered by a limited warranty, and defect-related issues reported within the warranty window are eligible for exchange or repair pending inspection.
NSabers has also published detailed guides on blade installation, board programming, and safe handling practices. These resources are available to all customers and are updated alongside firmware changes or hardware revisions.
Community Engagement
Although NSabers does not currently operate a user forum, it maintains a presence on several third-party platforms where users share reviews, modifications, and performance routines. The company has stated its intention to support a network of instructional content creators and build relationships with performance groups who use saber props for exhibitions and training.
The design process behind the new line included consultations with hobbyists and community testers. Feedback gathered during prototyping was incorporated into the final production specifications, particularly in the areas of hilt grip comfort, blade locking mechanisms, and haptic feedback.
Future Releases
NSabers plans to continue expanding its catalog with additional blade types, hilt configurations, and ecosystem accessories. Upcoming updates include modular soundboard expansion kits and enhanced battery capacity options. A roadmap of new products and compatibility guidelines is expected to be published on the company’s website later this year.
The company has also expressed interest in launching a dedicated app for sound and light configuration, though no timeline has been confirmed.
Availability
The full product line is currently available via the NSabers website. Prices vary depending on configuration and selected options.
