He has most recently been awarded a North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia Tri-State ASLA award for his work on the Luxor, Egypt Master Plan, and was a finalist for the Rome Prize in Landscape Architecture 2008. Health, Environment, Representation and Interpretation His research and scholarly activities concerning the influence of medical thought on environmental design have centered on the historical aspects of that influence, and the design of contemporary healthy environments that integrate medical geography and cultural interpretation. Published peer-reviewed and cited work examining the influence of medical thought on F L Olmsted design has appeared in the journals: The Bulletin of the History of Medicine, The Bulletin of Anesthesia History, and Psychiatry on Line Italia. Research addressing the influence of international medical thought on 19th-century cities and parks has been published in the peer-reviewed journals Landscape Review, and CELA Selected Papers 2005, and 2010. Examples of research regarding the influences of medical thought on contemporary environments related to cultural interpretation and landscape epidemiology have also been published in CELA Select Papers 2005 and Landscape Review. A collaborative project suggesting that the incorporation of landscape images from dreams is useful from the standpoint of evolutionary biology for the creation of more healthy and sustainable environments was published in Landscape Forum His creative and professional activity concerning health and design include continuing national and international consultation on healthcare facility design, including: the application therapeutic design principles for resort design in Vallkenburg, Holland and Shanghai, China: for healthcare facilities at Greenville Hospital’s Alzhiemer’s Facility, Spartanberg Hospital’s Health Care Village, and for the Medical University of South Carolina campus; the application of therapeutic design principles that incorporate non-Western medical approaches to health care design was employed at the Sharm al Sheik Neurological Center in Egypt. Creative and professional activity that blends sustainability, health and the environment includes: sustainable and healthy neighborhood design proposals for the City of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; sustainable and healthy community design proposals for Lake Conestee and Simpsonville, South Carolina; and Clemson University’s “Green” Community Health Care Center. His work concerning landscape representation and interpretation, expressed through in four exhibitions, the San Francisco Garden Show “Waterworks,” San Francisco Arts Commission, Exploration City Site: “Civic Center Viewing Chamber,” The Public Art Fund, New York, Gardens in the City Series,” and “Climate Change Garden” at the Late Show Garden Exposition in Sonoma. “Steam Temple.” “Waterworks” explored sustainable design expression related to the interconnection of natural systems and urban infrastructure. “Steam Temple” addressed these same issues related to the establishment of a new infrastructure park within the Allen Street Mall in Lower Manhattan as part of a project sponsored by New York’s Public Art Fund. “Civic Center Viewing Chamber,” examines cultural perceptions and representations of the landscape using historic viewing devices to reconsider the environmental setting of San Francisco’s Beaux-Arts Civic Center. Landscape Architecture International Education His research and scholarship related to landscape architecture international education has examined international education at CELA participating universities, internationalization and multiculturalism. He recently published comprehensive studies of landscape architecture international education in Landscape Journal and in Landscape Review. His work concerning international education extends to teaching and service activities, and to recent publications concerning international landscape architecture design and globalization. (Critiques of Built Works of Landscape Architecture and in CELA Published Papers 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010). Related to his research and scholarship, he has been active in grant writing, participating in grant development, as a co-investigator, and advisor; and has been particularly active in the development of international projects, including projects in Luxor, Egypt. Teaching and Service While he has assumed a wide range of teaching and service activities, including:
His teaching and service activities have broadly focused on international education and interdisciplinary collaboration. He has co-organized conferences and workshops with La Sapienza and Roma Tre Universities in Rome. He has been an invited participant in four national and international panels on international education, and is currently working on the internationalization of Clemson’s landscape architecture program, having acted as an analyst for the department concerning its role in the College’s Genoa program, its Barcelona program, Istanbul program, and its St Petersburg program. He has co-developed an exchange program between Clemson University and Ains Shams University, Cairo, and is currently developing a semester study abroad program for landscape architecture in Rome, Italy.
