Blair Brixton Landscape ArchitectDate of Birth - 15.11.74Nationality - New ZealandAddress - 20 B Kenwyn Tce, Newtown, WellingtonEmail - [email protected] - 0220743114

EXPERIENCE:

I have 13 years experience in a broad range of commercial and public realm projects in both New Zealand and in the United Kingdom, including commercial masterplanning, city, town centre and waterfront projects, large urban parks and historic squares, small scale site specifi c interventions and installations. My roles on these projects have varied: client, project lead, collaborator, project landscape architect, or design consultant. I have regularly taken projects from inception to completion, carrying out or overseeing a full range of Landscape Architectural services, fulfi lling cost control and client liaison roles. I have a good knowledge of local authority processes and have acted on London Borough of Islington’s behalf in a client role on several projects. I have also taken part in several suc-cessful design competitions and submissions.

For the past 5 years I have co-run a successful Landscape Architecture practice based in London, responsible for designing, project managing and delivering several large and complex projects. In this role I have led multidis-ciplinary teams from inception to project completion. Acting as a Director I have managed up to three staff , the fi nances, profi tability and day to day running of a practice and now have a strong interest in practice management and business development. I have a passion and respect for good design across all disciplines and in my own work aim to create work of quality, diff erence and meaning. I have developed an expertise in leading projects of varying scales and complexity to realisation and I take particular pride in the fact that most of my projects have been built.

I have been involved in several award winning projects within New Zealand, including recipients of NZILA and IFLA awards and have personally received recognition for my projects in the UK including a Civic Trust Awards Commendation, a prestigious Architecture and Conservation Award and most recently a British Landscape Insti-tute Design Award. I have also recently been part of successful submissions for international design competitions run by the British Landscape Institute and CABE.

ARUNDEL SQUARE

Pre-2007 - square & railway bank

Phase 1&2 - deck & building completed

Phase 3 - extended & improved square

PROJECT: ARUNDEL SQUARE, LONDON N7SCOPE: THE REDEVELOPMENT AND EXTENSION OF AN EXISTING VICTORIAN LONDON SQUARE OVER AN ENGI-NEERED RAFT/DECK STRUCTURECLIENT: LONDON BOROUGH OF ISLINGTONROLE: PROJECT LEAD, PROJECT LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTWORKSTAGES : A-LDATE: 2006-10BUDGET: £1.2M

OUTLINE BRIEF: To create an enhanced sense of place, creating a square that people would use and love, including better provi-sion for pedestrians & cyclists and more greenery. Remapp’s role was to construct and lead a multidisciplinary team from project inception to completion.OBJECTIVES: This fl agship project aims to create a unique and inspirational new ‘London Square’ for Islington. KEY CONSIDERATIONS: Reconstruction of the square would occur after the fi rst phases of works (the construction of a 30m wide x 110 long concrete raft spanning the underlying railway line, and of a multi-story apartment block). SIgnifi cant technical constraints, ownership issues and requirements for Network Rail permissions were imposed.

DESIGN PROPOSALS: The proposals seek to seemlessly join two very diff erent envi-ronments to create a whole. One environment an artifi cial roof garden with severe loading restrictions, the other an established square with 150 years of history. The creation of core central space aims to draw both sides together seemlessly and seeks to create a focus - a new centre of gravity. A series of themed sub spaces are attached to the periphery of this core space, giving variety, interest and choice in the square. A new network of paths and entrances helps defi ne and link the new structure/sequence of spaces and provides good access and thoroughfare. A new play area and hard play area cre-ate an active corner while a comprehensively engineered drain-age and structural proposal underlies the new square, redistribut-ing water run-off .The palette of materials combines traditional Victorian materials with bespoke and 21st century materials and techniques. Bound-ary treatments have been carried out to English Heritage Stand-ard, including lime mortar to brickwork, reproduction railings and stone copings specially designed for the square. Insitu and patterned pre-cast concrete are also used widely along with steel and timber structures and a large palette of Victorian and modern herbaceous planting designed for the two disctinct habitats.

DOVER ESPLANADE

PROJECT: DOVER ESPLANADE, KENTSCOPE: THE REDEVELOPMENT OF ONE OF DOVER’S KEY WATERFRONT PROMENADES FOLLOWING AN INTERNA-TIONAL DESIGN COMPETITION CLIENT: KENT COUNTY COUNCIL /DOVER DIST COUNCILROLE: TEAM MEMBER, LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTWORKSTAGES : A-CDATE: 2006-10BUDGET: £2M

OUTLINE BRIEF: To create an iconic waterfont for Dover. The esplanade would act as an attraction in itself and a link between the historic town centre and several planned future developments including a new ferry terminal, cable car and an improved marina.OBJECTIVES: To deal with what appeared to be three key issues on the site: lack of access to the beach from the esplanade, lack of sheltered seating and a lack of life/interest on the waterfront. KEY CONSIDERATIONS: Remapp joined forces with Tonkin Liu and JMP to submit an expression of interest for the international design competition run by the Landscape Institute in association with CABE. The team was shortlisted and asked to produce pro-posals along with 4 other teams. After submission and presenta-tion, the Remapp, JMP Tonkin Liu team was chosen as winner. The scheme was then taken to stage C by Tonkin Liu/Remapp. The scheme was then developed by Tonkin Liu to Detailed pro-posals before being adopted by KCC’ s own contractors with a watching brief role for Tonkin Liu.

DESIGN PROPOSAL: The ‘ lifting wave, resting wave and lighting wave’ concept is developed to practically deal with the issues while poetically mymicking the forms and motions of the beach itself. The lifting wave is an undulating ramp/step structure which lifts and drops users from the existing esplanade to the beach. The resting wave is a series of sitting and gathering areas, formed by white ribbed white walls and linear timber seating with the appearance of the famous white cliff s of Dover. Here users can relax and enjoy the seafront in a variety of sheltered positions, including raised grassed areas surrounded by native coastal planting. The lighting wave is a series of light columns providing amenity light along with moving and pulsing feature lighting designed to refl ect the strength of the wind. The esplanade surface is simply paved and improved. Planting is coastal, sustainable and drought tolerant.

Competition proposal for the Esplanade - better access to the beach, more shelter and rest from the elements, improved paving and feature lighting

DUNCAN TERRACE GARDENS

PROJECT: DUNCAN TERRACE GARDENS, LONDON N1SCOPE: REDEVELOPMENT OF A LINEAR PARK CLIENT: LONDON BOROUGH OF ISLINGTONROLE: PROJECT LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTWORKSTAGES : A-LDATE: 2007-9BUDGET: £450K AWARDS: LANDSCAPE INSTITUTE AWARDS 2010 - WINNER OF DE-SIGN UNDER 1 HECTARE CATEGORYISLINGTON SOCIETY ARCHITECTURE & CONSERVATION AWARD 2009NOMINATED HORTICULTURE WEEK AWARDS 2009 - BEST USE OF PLANTS IN LANDSCAPEBRITAIN IN BLOOM 2009 - SPECIAL MENTION

OUTLINE BRIEF: To revive and reinvigorate the gardens, im-prove access and the feeling of safety. To increase use and amen-ity for all users, encouraging residents to become involved and to adopt the space . OBJECTIVES: To create an oasis of calm, of horticultural delight while fulfi lling the council’s sustainability policies. KEY CONSIDERATIONS: A narrow site and substantial num-bers of mature trees meant delicate work was required. Design proposals sought fi rstly to selectively thin trees and evergreen shrubs to create sightlines and to allow light and therefore the chance for plant growth. Soils were carefully assessed, worked and adjusted to ensure the best possible growing conditions.

DESIGN PROPOSALS: A new path framework is carefully devel-oped around existing spaces and trees, maximising site character and giving the park a new fl ow. New entrances provide more access at more regular intervals around the park - to ensure it no longer feels like a corridor.Bespoke features are incorporated throughout the park to pro-vide function and delight. A timber boardwalk leads users from the main path through a shaded woodland area. Low walls are embossed with a playful rose pattern. Details and materials are simple and refi ned and quality & workmanship of materials is high. The scheme drains via planting beds /soakaways and has very low water requirements. The local authorities horticulture team is now using the gardens as a model to educate and train its staff and the community regu-larly take part in maintenance workshops.

ST LUKE’S GARDENS

PROJECT: ST LUKE’S GARDENS, LONDON EC1SCOPE: COLLABORATION IN DEVELOPING AND CON-STRUCTING A SMALL SCALE INSTALLATION IN A PUBLIC SQUARE FOR LONDON ARCHITECTURE BIENNALE 2006CLIENT: LONDON BOROUGH OF ISLINGTONCURATOR: SCARLET PROJECTSROLE: COLLABORATOR, ADVISOR, PROJECT LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT.WORKSTAGES : C,E,K,LDATE: 2005-6BUDGET: £50K

OUTLINE BRIEF: To assist and interpret the ideas of commis-sioned designers/artists Peter Saville, Gary Hume and Georgie Hopton to successfully deliver a separate ‘living installation’. OBJECTIVES: To produce a workable solution to artists’ concep-tual ideas for the space, ensuring the installation could survive, be maintained, and be in fl ower for the week long Biennale.KEY CONSIDERATIONS: The design process was an unusual one, starting with ideas from the artists being exhibited at the Architecture Associations’ Yard Gallery. This led to the develop-ment of Peter Saville’s ideas based around CMYK - the print proc-ess colours - the area surrounding the gardens in the past being the heart of London’s print industry. It was decided to go with a mainly plant based installation, focussed around a central circular paved area.

DESIGN PROPOSALS: Paving is simply renewed and turf relaid to frame the feature. The beds are laid out radially in the style of a printmakers stamp and using foliage and fl ower colour to repre-sent Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Key (black). The proportions of each colour are carefully specifi ed by Saville. Coloured concrete edging of the planters are subtly inscribed with C, M, Y & K to describe the colour they represent. A central feature contains a mixture of the colours and again has the words cyan, magenta, yellow and black inscribed. Bespoke park benches are designed by designers Precious McBane.

FINSBURY SQUARE

PROJECT: FINSBURY SQUARE, LONDON EC2SCOPE: THE REDEVELOPMENT OF A KEY CENTRAL LON-DON SQUARE, INCLUDING REDEVELOPMENT OF EXISTING GREENSPACE, HIGHWAYS, NEW BUILDINGS, TREATMENT OF EXISTING UNDERLYING CAR-PARK STRUCTURE.CLIENT: LONDON BOROUGH OF ISLINGTONROLE: PROJECT LEAD, PROJECT LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTWORKSTAGES : SQUARE & SURROUNDS - C , PHASE 1 - BUILDINGS AND CENTRAL PLATFORM - A-IDATE: 2006 (UNBUILT)BUDGET: £650K

OUTLINE BRIEF: To produce innovative outline proposals for the redevelopment of the broader square, up to adjacent build-ing lines, along with the fi rst phase of works to be developed and ready for tender. Proposals were to form part of an impending court case. OBJECTIVES: To modernise the square, providing increased space/decreased clutter and improved amenity without losing any existing function. KEY CONSIDERATIONS: Considerable technical constraints had to be dealt with due to existing structures. Two defunct petrol stations were to be removed, existing bowling green retained and existing car-park structure beneath protected and retained. A new building was to be designed incorporating stairwells and vents from the carpark below, housing bowling green shop/fa-cilities along with a cafe/restaurant space and public toilets. All structural / M&E requirements of the carparking building below were to be dealt with. Time constraints also meant that the team had only 3 months to deliver this work.

DESIGN PROPOSALS: The creation of a fresh, relaxing and open vibrant space is proposed. A shared surface between the buildings and the square is created and street trees are planted to extend the square to building frontages. The internal square is decluttered, existing buildings demolished and a new feature cen-tral pavillion/amenity building constructed, linking the north and south sides of the square while housing the necessary carpark-ing access and vents. The bowling green is made a feature and facilities given a facelift to encourage daily use, including a new cafe/bar. Two of the disused carpark access ramps are closed and planted. The square is lit a night to create drama and encourage nightime/corporate use.

BINGFIELD PARK

PROJECT: BINGFIELD PARK, LONDON NW1SCOPE: PUBLIC REALM IMPROVEMENTS OF AN INNER CITY PARK INCLUDING THE LARGE-SCALE RE-ORGANISATION OF SPACES, EARTHWORKS AND REORGANISATION OF AN ADVENTURE PLAYGROUNDCLIENT: LONDON BOROUGH OF ISLINGTONROLE: PROJECT LEAD, PROJECT LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTDATE: 2003-5BUDGET: £450K

OUTLINE BRIEF: To overhaul the misused park by reorganis-ing spaces, access and providing facilities for local youth. The space was to better relate to streetscapes and buildings adjacent, provide clear and safe access, discourage misuse and be ’bomb-proof’ in construction. OBJECTIVES: Working from key issues highlighted within an earlier urban design study, our objectives were to improve visibil-ity, access and safety while providing useable social and playable spaces. Additional funding was to be sourced for new equipment for the adjacent adventure playground.KEY CONSIDERATIONS: Major restructuring was required to enable this; fi rst a forest of trees had to be removed /selectively thinned (120 were removed) and then signifi cant spoil heaps removed. The boundary of the existing adventure playground had to be realigned and retained/reconstructed. In addition, engage-ment of local youth was to be the key to the projects success or failure.

DESIGN PROPOSALS: Paths provide direct and clearly visible routes across the the park from defi ned entrances. A sunken ballcourt/public square is created and placed in the centre of the new park and adjacent to the adventure playground. Stone fi lled Gabions are chosen to retain soil mounds on the boundary to the play area. Steel, concrete and tarmac are used elsewhere for furniture and new lighting installed. Special ‘anti-scooter’ gates are designed and painted red to clearly demarcate safe entrances and exits and suitable trees are replanted to enhance the new park structure.

Proposed improvements - realigned paths & new entrances, new ballcourt, reconfi gured boundary

Proposed improvements - basketball hoop and park entry wall

Proposed improvements - pedestrian/cycle only gate & ballcourt seating

Existing site - poor layout, circulation and overplanting

PROJECT: NEWINGTON GREEN, LONDON N16SCOPE: PUBLIC REALM IMPROVEMENTS, INCLUDING GREENSPACE IMPROVEMENTS, HIGHWAYS RESTRUCTUR-ING, AND NEW AMENITY BUILDINGCLIENT: LONDON BOROUGH OF ISLINGTONROLE: PROJECT LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTWORKSTAGES : D-LDATE: 2003-4BUDGET: £435K GREENSPACE, £755K HIGHWAYS, £212K BUILDINGAWARDS: CIVIC TRUST AWARDS 2006 - COMMENDATIONENGLISH HERITAGE - GREEN HERITAGE SITE STATUS 2007

OUTLINE BRIEF: To reduce the traffi c-dominated surrounds of the green, decluttering it and providing better access to the space contained - reconnecting the green to its surroundings and providing a focal point for the community. Within the green, to improve the quality and function of facilities and spaces. OBJECTIVES: To create a simple, bright, distinctive and contem-porary space suited to today’s users and today’s context. KEY CONSIDERATIONS: Design studies had been carried out to outline design stage and comprehensive consultation was already underway to uncover the cultural history of the site. Deliverables included proposals for the green and surrounds from outline de-sign to completion in collaboration with Islington Council’s High-ways Department Engineers and liaison with building architects developing proposals for the new park building.

DESIGN PROPOSALS: Visible and direct routes through the space are created while new crossings from surrounding streets and transport hubs are installed. The main entrance is indented and the new building forms a gatepost to punctuate the entrance. Within the square larger, more open, fl exible spaces, including new play and cafe facilites are created. The materials pallette is simple, practical, bespoke and of high quality. Black walls and slab seating is used to defi ne entrances and key spaces, timber is used to be tactile, gravels used underfoot.

ASTEY’S ROW

PROJECT: ASTEY’S ROW, LONDON N1SCOPE: PUBLIC REALM IMPROVEMENTSCLIENT: LONDON BOROUGH OF ISLINGTONROLE: PROJECT LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTWORKSTAGES : A-LDATE: 2003BUDGET: £50K

OUTLINE BRIEF: To create a small urban space which celebrates its location on the historic ‘New River’, a man-made water course completed in 1613, which delivers fresh drinking water to London.OBJECTIVES: The project aims to reinvent a derelict site creating a public space which functions as a gateway and encouraging use of the adjacent linear park while highlighting the historic impor-tance of the site and the New River. The space acts to connect the variety of surrounding functions and uses and deals with diffi cult level changes from footpaths/highways surrounding to provide better access.KEY CONSIDERATIONS: Budget of only £50K, awkward site surrounded by existing footpaths, walls and associated levels.

DESIGN PROPOSAL: The solution consists of a series of con-necting ramps and steps bound by existing walls and fences along with new planting. The surfacing is a cartographic representation of the path of the New River through Islington along with prose describing the scene embossed on the New River Company seal. Colour treated concrete is used (insitu and prefab) and the fi nish is achieved with a special template and shot-blasting technique.

Design inspiration & development - imagery from the seal, cartographic contours, text on the groundplane and the ideas coming together

History - scenes of the opening of the New River, the New River Company Seal, Historic Map of Islington, logs being hollowed to form water pipes and historic poetry
