Landscapes for people and place

Journal  —

Plants, places and perspective.

Landscapes are never just what they appear to be. A tree is not simply a tree, a seat is not only for sitting, and a playground is more than a collection of equipment.

In the Journal I explore the questions, observations and experiences that shape my work — and what landscapes do, as well as how they look.

New perspectives, deeper understanding.
