Autor

Richard Coles is Emeritus Professor of Landscape in the Birmingham School of Architecture and Design, Birmingham City University, UK. His research involves understanding the nature of environmental interaction and the development of environments that are supportive of the needs of users as well as broader issues relating to urban greening. His initial training in biological sciences, and his work within a design school of architecture, allows him to adopt a unique stance to investigation. During his academic career, he has received a number of grant awards from the UK Research Councils and EU funding as well as supervising numerous research studies. Sandra Costa is a Senior Lecturer in Landscape Architecture at Birmingham School of Architecture and Design, Birmingham City University, UK. Her research examines the nature of person-place interactions, exploring the choreographies of the experience and how individuals negotiate well-being in the landscape. Sandra's research informs and is informed by teaching design studio, live projects and transdisciplinary collaborations, where she further investigates how we can design environments for human well-being whilst responding to and interacting with a changing climate.
