Biographies

Tom Robinson

Tom Robinson is a Chartered Landscape Architect with over 25 years experience in the supply of landscape design solutions in the UK, Europe and the Far East, gained in both the public and private sectors.

Neil Morbey

I am originally from Plymouth, where I grew up in a small Devon suburb, with close links to the countryside and the sea. I have an affinity with the character and beauty of England: in the patchwork countryside, wild mountains, historic architectural cities and the endless coastline. I love to travel.

I enjoy gardening, surfing, rock climbing and I have a love for the arts. My interests combine nicely for me in Landscape Architecture. There is a huge breadth of knowledge and skills involved.

I worked in plant nurseries, landscape offices and volunteered on allotments to learn as much as I could during my studies at the University of Sheffield. After completing my degree I worked in Southern California. My first practice experience provided the chance to design, manage projects, liaise with multiple disciplines and share my graphic and computer skills with others. During my post graduate diploma I worked in a groundwork practice in Sheffield. where I designed and constructed varied projects. I also helped to develop a 3D landscape modeling software at the University.

I have found through my work and studies that I have a strong interest in sustainability and in SUDS, especially when combined with an aesthetic appeal in public landscapes. I love to work with plants and on fine details in construction and I have a strong ability in graphic presentation, sketching, computer aided design and 3D modeling.

In July 2007 I took a job with Robinson Landscape Design. They stood out of the field with a high level of design, interesting and varied projects and a friendly close-knit office. I am currently working towards professional chartership.

Frankie Wang

I was trained as an architect in Zhengzhou University in my hometown from 1996-2001 and worked for public sector for a year in housing development.

Another year of studying Master degree in Urban design makes me a building-sensitive and design- conscious professional.

A passion for delivering great design led me through the last 4 years working as an urban designer in Robinson Landscape Design Ltd. and has afforded me the opportunity to share the experience with fantastic colleagues. We are like family members when dealing with exciting projects such as Newcastle Great Park and Newcastle City Library. I have improved my design skills quite a lot and was so glad that my 3D model work on both projects helped to develop the design.

Andrew Clarey

Andrew has over 9 years experience in Landscape Architecture, Town Planning and Urban Design. He was awarded a 2:1 degree in Landscape Architecture from the University of Leeds and received a Diploma in Town Planning with an Urban design specialism from London Southbank University. He is currently close to completing an MA in Urban Design at the University of Newcastle. He is able to develop projects from early conceptual phases through to detailed design. He has worked on a number of large scale masterplans such as designs for a new mixed-use man-made island development in Bahrain, through to smaller scale urban design projects, such as an urban design strategy and masterplan for a new international arena on Brighton Seafront, and a public realm and seafront masterplan for Southend-on-Sea. He is currently working on a design for Redcar seafront promenade. He has been involved in Landscape Design and construction of all scales throughout his career, including implementation and planting strategies and has experience of Town Planning for both architectural and landscape architecture developments and has acted as a consultant for BBC’s Home Front in the Garden.

Richard Duncan

I am originally from Worcestershire, but moved to Scotland to study Landscape Architecture at Edinburgh College of Art (ECA). I have a particular interest in the areas of remediation, regeneration, and urban design. I am currently undertaking my 4th year ‘Year Out'
