About Me
Objective
Skills
After working in the Banking industry for almost 4 years I travelled to Australia for a planned work and cultural experience. I used this opportunity to explore new industries and particularly enjoyed working with plants and the environment in various forms.
Having just completed my Masters in Landscape Architecture with a Distinction Award, I am seeking industry experience to supplement my education and apply what I have learnt so far.
Self motivated ***** Time management ***** Facilitator **** Working as part of a team ***** Highly professional ***** Good communication ***** Adobe Photoshop **** Adobe InDesign **** AutoCAD *** ArcGIS *** Google Sketchup *** MS Suite ***** Hand drawing ***
From this, my interest in landscape design grew and I realised it was the profession I wanted to be a part of. This led me to the formal qualification obtained at Leeds Metropolitan University which included an exchange opportunity at RMIT University that took me back to Melbourne. Travelling has broadened my interests in culture, food and the arts as well as allowing me to develop many new relationships. Obviously I love to travel, but I’m also a keen sportsman having played competitive hockey for over 15 years which included captaining a 1st XI side to promotion.
Of particular interest to me is the subject of climate change and how as Landscape Architects, we have a critical role in designing the environment for increasing populations that anticipate and mitigate the effects of increasingly volatile and extreme weather events. I wish to gain chartership with the Landscape Institute and will look to work towards this through employment with a professional practice.

Fishermans Bend, Melbourne
Urban Renewal Area in relation to Melbourne CBD
Urban Renewal Project
The major project for my Masters course focused on whether Green Infrastructure could be the driver for urban renewal in this industrial inner city suburb of Melbourne. The project focused on developing a highly liveable, climate change resilient and sustainable suburb to accommodate the increasing population of the world’s most liveable city. From site analysis and research through masterplanning to detailed design, the project is comprehensive in its entirety but only a sample of the detailed design proposals are included here.

The Civic Spine A key feature of the project, the civic spine will link Fishermans Bend to the CBD. For use by pedestrians, cyclists and trams only it is designed to meet the needs of people not automobiles. Water sensitive and sustainable design focuses on mitigating the effects of climate change with substantial greening initiatives such as grass filled tram tracks and bioswales.

Fishermans Square Fishermans Square, at 3600 sqm, provides the main urban public space in Fishermans Bend and will be the ‘jewel in the crown’ of the suburb. Its flexible open space allows for a multitude of events to take place such as markets, fairs and performances allowing the square to constantly provide interesting and varying experiences, all year round.
A
Situated midway along the civic spine it will be serviced by its own tram stop and easily accessible by all. The square will also serve as an extension of the entrance to a new district library or similar public building at its southern edge. Framing of the square will be completed by mixed use buildings on the east and western edges, which will have ground floor cafes and restaurants with outdoor seating to help activate the square. These buildings will also have green roofs overlooking the square A closed circuit rill will be the main feature that will harvest rain water and allow play or relaxation opportunities. Symbolic of the Yarra river it will serve to connect people with water, an extremely important resource in Australia. The Rill cuts off the inner square from the outer. Fishing rod structures pay homage to the name of the area and create the illusion that the inner square is being lifted out from the water.

A second feature, and a key part of the identity of the square, is the unique paving pattern which represents the coming together of the different elements that have and will shape Fishermans Bend as a unique place. The pattern subtly directs pedestrians into the square and the linear elements are formed by desired routes through the area.The material pallette reflects the industrial character of the area, modern urban space, an extension of Melbourne’s CBD and the integration of nature. The central stone at the centre of the square is the meeting point of some of these elements and symbolises the heart of Fishermans Bend and the coming together of city, industry, history, culture and nature. Deciduous trees provide shade in summer and allow light in during winter. The changing leaf colours and blossoms will also contribute to a changing character and represent the dynamic, lively square in a natural form Subtle level changes allow informal seating opportunities without limiting the accessibility to all users, or compromising the potential uses or activities that can occur in the square. Significant seating options encourage a multitude of users to stay and ample lighting ensure the square’s lively atmosphere is maintained beyond daylight hours.

International Study Exchange RMIT University, Melbourne
During the final year of my Masters course I spent the first semester at RMIT where I got to engage in a different approach to Landscape Architecture. Courses undertaken were: Theoretical Frameworks, which centred on different ways of analysing and representing site; Farming the Future, which looked at the concept of sustainability from different stakeholder perspectives and; ‘Uneasy Agents’ Design Studio, which encouraged using the body to read site and encouraged minot interventions to showcase the inate qualities Theoretical Frameworks. Drawing(above) and corresponding abstract(below) produced in a post-structuralist style
The cutting is like an ‘abstract machine’; an assemblage of functions that are folded into one another so as to blur any boundaries that might exist to define individual territories. The cutting is created by the train line, carved into the hill and dissecting the golf course. Whilst some effort has been made to fence off and screen the tracks from the adjacent and overlooking footpath, a clear marking of the private from the public realms, the steep banks, with their individual characters, actually fold into the rail line’s territory and blur this boundary between public and private, resulting in the rail line and banks becoming a part of the footpath’s territory as a whole. Similarly, the lack of fences defining the golf course as a territory folds the whole site into one entity – a series of individual components whose interrelationships give rise to the abstract machine. The rhizomatic structure of its parts allows this ‘abstract machine’ to function as a whole. The horizontal plane works as an assemblage to serve both function and form, but it is the relationship between the individual components which defines this site. This is only possible through the rhizomatic structure. A tree-like structure would be too rigid to support a coexistence of such differing components. The drawing shows the assemblage to be made up by the train line, the north and south facing banks, the golf course and the footpath as individual components. Emphasis is placed on the linearity of the components and most significantly; how they fold together to form the abstract machine.

With this proposed even aged planting, the new woodland will begin life as a Nurse Tree Shelterwood system with the ‘shelter’ trees (Birch) providing protection for the other tree species to establish. Once the desired species have established the nurse species will be removed, and a Shelterwood With Reserves systems will ensure continued regenearation.

Notes: All trees will be transplants which have been nursey grown for 2 years. After the first year, the seedlings are pulled up and have their main roots trimmed to encourage growth of a more fibrous root system, they are then transplanted to a new bed with greater spacing for a further year. Once established the Gorse barrier will protect the young trees predominantly from grazing sheep and deer but also strong wind and people in the development stages. Woodland development vision Short-term
Phase 2 - canopy forming, removal of selected trees including nurse species. Shrub barrier in recess Mid-term
A Shelterwood system ensures ongoing regeneration of the woodland by employing a method of cutting the mature stand in a sequence of harvests to make room for a new age class. The first cut, or harvest, enhances conditions for seed production in the stand. The second harvest prepares the seed bed and creates a new age class and the third cut is a removal of the mature stand to eliminate overwood competition from the established regeneration However, in a Shelterwood With Reserves, some or all of the shelter trees are retained to attain goals other than regeneration. In this case, to develop the stand into a twoaged or uneven-aged condition Once the stand becomes uneven aged the silviculture can move toward a True Selection system - individual selection of trees to be removed as and when required.

Long-term
Short-term: Initially the shrub layer acting as a buffer is prevelant. Naturally occuring field layer grasses thrive and nurse species trees develop at a faster rate. Mid-term: Trees begin to mature and canopy closes, shading out shrub and field layers. Nurse species also suffer and begin to be selectively thinned. Pine and Larch species thrive. Phase 3 - desired trees reaching maturity, selected removal of individual trees or clearing of areas within the wood. Shrub barrier gone
Long-term: Woodland reaches maturity, silviculture strategy implemeted to manage. Beech and Oak species dominate, inhibiting understory development. Scale 1:500

Making Judgements
The basis of our criteria was developed from the Wittig and Schreiber Method of evaluating ecological aspects and so we scored values upon the following criteria: The Period of Development (in terms of age of maps whereby Pre-1800 scores the highest and anything after 1960 was the lowest), Area (the greater the area the higher the score), Rarity (the greater the distance between similar habitats the higher the score) and Function (the greater the number of structural habitat units the higher the score). The values were derived by scoring each character area from 1 to 4, 4 being the highest score. The character areas with the highest score for the ecological evaluation were the River Aire and Floodplain, Calverley Historic Field Patterns and Semi-Rural Town Entrance to Calverley. Whilst the lowest score was given to Clara Drive.
Our historical criteria had to bridge the gap between objective and perceptual evaluation and therefore our chosen criteria included: Designated sites (e.g. listed buildings), Age (historical periods) and Quality (condition of historical features on a descending scale). The character area with the highest score for the historical evaluation was Calverley Historic Town Core. Whilst the lowest scores were given to Clara Drive and Calverley’s Modern Development. NB Calverley Historic Town Core has 7 listed buildings, The Older Village has 3 and Rawdon Cragg Wood has 2
Scoring Criteria
It was apparent that The criteria for the visual evaluation was the most perceptual, involving: Aesthetics (taking into account colour, texture, shape and composition), Prominence (measured in terms of the degree of significance of visual features within each area) and Majority Opinion (General feeling toward to the area), valued on a decending scale between 4 and 1.
Overall Evaluation scores were calculated by totaling the scores from the other three evaluation topics. The total scores indicated in the graph show that the highest scoring overall areas were the Canal edge, Rawdon Farmland and Calverley’s Historic Town Core. The poorest scoring areas were Clara Drive and the Modern Development. Most likely these scored poorly because they were not in keeping with the areas around them. Clara Drive in particular is seemingly a residential street ‘invading’ historic woodland. There doesn’t seem to be a need for it to exist there, quite removed from the rest of the housing in the transect. Clara Drive could perhaps be ‘softened’ by removing some of the houses to make it a more natural woodland, with just a few houses encroaching into it. The Modern Development again, does not hold true to the style of the surrounds - the Victorian development and the even older Historic core, with strong identity in Yorkstone. Indeed, the architecture within the modern development does range in styles from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and so on, but none of it is particularly striking. As a possible way of improving these areas so that they might score more highly, we would suggest a change of architectural approach to the Modern Development to replicate or tie into the character of the rest of the town.

Armley Mills Park Designing with Plants
This design project required the development of the grounds of Armley Mills, an old cotton mill which is now a museum to the history of the area. The grounds have been left unloved for some time and the creation of a new park would encourage community use and provide learning, ecological and recreational facilities to complement the Mills

Freehand Work
‘Unpolished’ sketches and concept diagrams
All the work presented thus far in its finished and presentable state initially began life as a simple sketch. I recognise the importance of being able to produce quick hand drawn sketches or diagrams as part of the design process and as a tool for communication of ideas to clients and colleagues. There is also a quality in hand drawings that conveys character or emotion, that photographs or perfectly rendered computer visuals cannot always capture.
