He previously taught at and received his practice-based PhD in Landscape Architecture from Victoria University of Wellington (2021), where he focused on documenting design techniques that made aesthetic encounters with the sublime concrete and designable. His current research grapples with developing and documenting approaches to landscape design that are strongly suited to giving expression to encounters with and sensation and experience of the material of landscape. This work is appropriated to an urbanistic scale where the future potentials of urban aggregate quarries are subject to experimentation through design-research modalities.
