My research is connected to the anthropogenic transformation of landscapes. I am interested in the processes of change (past, present and future), and its consequences as well as forms of communication that can help better illustrate and explain change to local people. Ireland should move towards a more participative, transparent and easily accessible planning process. 

Fundamental connections between the local and global, the city, the landscape, ourselves and the natural world should be better understood and accounted for in the planning and design of the lived-in environment. My current focus is on trees (outside the forest).
