A moving opportunity; the second set of change-of-address postcards in 6 months. The PO Box from the fall is no more. Studio, home, and mailing address are now in East Eugene. DM your address for postcard (with new mailing address) featuring all sorts of collaborative work from both New England and the PNW. All welcome! #landscape #art #design #landarch #ecology #interdiscpilary #collaboration #artmail #mailart #write #home #often (at University of Oregon College of Design) https://www.instagram.com/p/COibQIgMJtv/?igshid=15hv54j3d315s

A good day. Always a treat to receive mail from friends back east. @jackkbyers delivered this sweet photography (film!) pub documenting some of our @harvard.forest collabs in 2017 and 2018. Makes me miss my east coast creative crew. XOXO JKB. #jackkbyers #harvardforest #hemlockhosice #warmingwarning #interdisciplinary #collaboration (at University of Oregon College of Design) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNIX3nqs2za/?igshid=105fvl0a19v4p

For the love of Olmsted, stop teaching LA students software, and start teaching them software workflows. Here is a sampling of outstanding work from the winter terms “Intro to Media” course at @uoarchenv. Almost all these second-term students had less than 200 hours of total software experience, as self-reported in their initial gap analysis. Also, a HAF high-five to @ign24680 for preparing many of these students last term in his award-winning studio…he’s a not-so-secret foundational media dynamo in the department. . . . Yes, we did a woodshed render exercise...you can take the boy out of the woods, but you can’t take.... . #landarch #UOlandscape #UOLA #landarch #landscapearchitecture #workflow #renderings (at University of Oregon College of Design) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM3_Rp9MF5O/?igshid=vy7j8j3t7mym

TBT to my “Suite New England Landscape” installation at the @hotelstudioallston with @isenbergprojects in 2018. Word around campus is that the hotel is making plans to re-open this Spring. Ask for Suite 410 if you have ever wondered how a feral landscape architect might design an interior inspired by his love of New England landscapes and his nephews. #signupforfun #holaanthony #ferallandscapearchitect #interiordesign #landscape #ecology #supergraphics #kidsdontfollow (at Studio Allston Hotel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMBMO11MlMp/?igshid=1mhqj55ku92g9

My rockstar @uoarchenv thesis student, Heather Tietz, has successfully submitted her 50% thesis draft. Her design research is beyond rad (urban ecology x ceramic art x environmental design) and gives me joyful hope for the future of Landscape Architecture. Add @heathraeti to your landscape architecture emerging-designer radar. you won't be sorry! . The project in Heather’s own words: “Examining themes of abundance, resilience, and liminal space, I have been learning about the qualities and benefits that mosses provide in suitable urban environments such as the Pacific Northwest. My master’s project aims to foreground the potential of mosses by designing ceramic and clay substrates of varying porosities that I hope will serve as basic research in the field of landscape architecture. Translating ideas through analog drawing, digital and parametric modeling, and 3D printing in clay offers an exciting and iterative process in research-through-design. While monitoring the primary experiment, I am using an hourly time lapse photo capture, collecting humidity and temperature data, and journaling through observation. Information generated from the moss propagation experiments will give insight and provoke more questions on how to design effective substrates with specific typological applications for enhancing the ecology of urban environments.” #landarch #clay #ceramic #moss #bryology #foreground #cerambot #experiment #designresearch #syntrichia #antitrichia #ceratadonpurpureus #3dprinting #landscapearchitecture (at University of Oregon College of Design) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL5g77msfOp/?igshid=y3hwn8b9fy5h

Install Day 2. A couple images of the "Tigard Universal Beacon" project from today's installation courtesy of Andy at Pike Awning. . . Super grateful to the City of Tigard, @alishasullivan, @pikeawning, and the @rios.imagines team (esp. @peteremerson.la and @proud__dog__mom ) for the opportunity; a dream COVID-era public art/design collab between the PNW arts and landscape architecture.
