EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT!

I’m very excited to announce that I have been awarded a grant of £5,000 from RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) to help fund a book I am currently working on. The book will detail the work of the Dutch landscape architect Mien Ruys. As modernist garden design did not gain a foothold in Britain, Mien (called the 'mother of modernism' in Holland) remains relatively unknown in the UK. The goal is to introduce her work to a new audience through this publication. The plan is to have something that is large format and hardback with beautiful images.

Looks like it will be a busy year!
