Living Roofs by Teneus. Tekstit Ashley D Penn

Olen kirjoittanut kirjan Living Roofs TeNeues kustantamon puolesta ja yli 25 artikkelia Landscape Architects Network’lle (LAN), sisältäen heidän kaikkein aikoja luetuimman artikkelinsa 8 Amazing Facts About Trees That You Didn’t Know. LAN’in Content Directorina neuvoin yli 50 hengen kirjoittajatiimiä siinä miten parantaa heidän kirjoitustyyliään, sekä tutkin maisema-arkkitehtuurin uusimpia trendejä ja käytin ‘viral marketing’.

Pystyn kirjoittamaan valikoimasta aiheita, kuten maisema-arkkitehtuuri, puutarhasuunnittelu, puutarhanhoito ja puutarhatalous. Tarjoan kilpailukykkyisen hinnan lyhyille artikkeleille lehdissä ja netissä julkaistavaksi, kuin myös laajempiin kirjoituksiin ja kirjoihin jne.

Ashley D Penn CMLI Press and Reviews

“Living Roofs” is a fantastic reference book aimed to inspire roof owners and project developers to do the same… “Living Roofs” should be on the desk of urban-minded landscape architects, any ambitious project developer, and off course on the table of your own roof garden!” – SkyHighCity

“Living Roofs” by Ashley Penn is a beautiful coffee table book which has recognized the growing trend for roof top gardens and has showcased various examples through strong visuals and informative text. …Ashley’s narrative of the projects provides just the right amount of technical and aesthetic information while critically engaging with the specific design intentions.” – Landscape Architects Network

Garden Design

“Ash is a tremendously knowledgable and creative garden designer who combines a passion for sustainable design with a commitment to exceeding his clients’ expectations.”
– Mr. S. Royal Tunbridge Wells

Ashley D Penn Maisema-arkkitehtiOlen saatavilla freelance– ja sopimustöihin maisema-arkkitehtuurin alueella. Minulla on laaja kokoemus työskentelystä monitieteellisissä työryhmissä, joiden kohteena ovat vaihdelleet sairaala-alueista, kouluihin ja puitoihin aina moottoriteihin ja lentokenttiin. Aiempi työkokemukseni maisemarakennusurakoitsijana on kehittänyt minulle tarkan silmän rakenteellisiin yksityiskohtiin ja ymmärryksen kovien maisemanrakennusmateriaalien fyysisiä ominaisuuksia.

Taustani

Ashley D Penn. Writer, Communicator, and Designer. Philosophy

Ashley D Penn. Writer, Communicator, and Designer. Philosophy

Suomessa olen MARKin jäsen. Työskentelin Iso-Britanniassa maisema-arkkitehtina monen vuoden ajan. Olen kirjoittanut monta artikkelia eri julkaisuille, kuten Landscape Architcts Network, jossa työskentelin vapaaehtoisena kirjoittajana sekä heidän Content Directorina.

Olen myös kirjoittanut kirjan TeNeues kustannukselle nimeltä Living Roofs, joka käsitteleen viherkattoja sekä kattoputarhoja. Voitte läytää sen Amazonista, täällä.

Nykyään asun Nokialla, Suomessa, ja työskentelen Tampereella Jolma Arkkitehditille.

Yksityiset ja julkiset puutarhat

Ashley D Penn Puutarha sunnittelu

Suunnittelen käytännöllisiä ja kaunniita puutarhoja niin yksityisiin pihoihin kuin julkisille aueillekin. Taustani puutarhanhoidossa sekä puutarhasuullittelussa (kuin myös maisema-arkkitehtuurissa) mahdollistaa kykyni toimia eri suuruisissa tiloissa ja luoda alueita, jotka toimivat monella eri tasolla, kuten pieniä intiimejä alueita vieraiden viihdyttämiseen ja suuria avoimia alueita monikäyttöisiin tarkoituksiin. Pystyn luomaan moderneja sekä vanhanaikaisia puutarhoja käyttäen innovatiivista ja tunnelmallista valaistusta. Tykkään käyttää vettä ja kasveja luomaan liikettä ja ääntä puutarhaan.

Sijainnit ja metodologia

Ashley D Penn Puutarha sunnittelu

Ashley D Penn Puutarha sunnittelu

Pystyn ottamaan vastaan puutahasuunnitteluprojekteja Nokialta ja TAmpereelta, sekä lähiympäristöstä. Tavallisesti aloitan käymällä kohteessa ja keskustelemalla asiakkaan kanssa toiveista ja vaatimuksista, sekä saadakseni käsityksen suunnittelukohteesta. Tämän jälkeen joko teetän riippumattoman kartoituksen alueesta tai teen sen itse pienemmässä mittakaavassa (tämä riippuu kohteen koosta ja monimutkaisuudesta).

Ensimmäiset ideani esitäm käsipiirroksina. Tämän jälkeen käytän tietokoneohjelmaa suunnitelman työstämisessä. Työskentelytapani autta yhdistämään käsipiirrosten joustavuuden ja luovuuden tietokoneohjelman helppouteen ja nopeuteen.

I write for Chediston Partners on the subject of fairness business. We believe that markets become more sustainable when all parties act fairly. This involves offering fair terms of business, and financial redress, as well as not pressing that immediate momentary advantage in favour of helping the smaller party for longer term gains.

Landscape Architects Network

I joined Landscape Architects Network in 2012 as a volunteer writer, before working my way up to Co-Editor and eventually Content Director in 2015. During my time I wrote many articles, some of which are no longer published on their website. The links below lead to those articles which are still live on their website.

Background

I originally trained as a landscape architect in the UK, and now live in Nokia, Finland. I am a member of MARK (Suomen maisema-arkkitehdit), the Finnish organisation for landscape architects.

During my post-graduate studies in Landscape Architecture, I developed an interest in writing. I have written many articles for Landscape Architects Network, and both as a volunteer writer, and later, as their Content Director. I now write for Land8 as part of my work for Jolma Architects.

I have also written a book, Living Roofs for TeNeues publishing all about green roofs and roof gardens.
