A project of Blauwhoed Developers Rotterdam.
Andrew works in Canada, The Netherlands and internationally.
He is well known for his subtle and minimalistic landscape design approach. Andrew is always searching for unconventional solutions and new concepts in the landscape architecture profession..
With his experience and his award-winning approach, he works to strengthen the sense of place by connecting with the underlying landscape. Andrew believes every place tells the story of the landscape to which it belongs. There is always a conscious or subconscious connection to the landscape and a good landscape design response to that.
Andrew’s landscape architecture explores the contrast between the natural landscape and architecture, striving for a balance between the spontaneous expression of nature and minimalist architectural interventions. His intention is to allow the natural, intuitive beauty of the landscape to express itself and to enhance the connection with its surroundings by framing nature in a humble and minimalistic way.
