This insight translates to his teaching, which emphasizes invention, the ability to synthesize among unlike things, and to contextualize facts and ideas. His work is driven by the contemporary interest in design methods as a form of inquiry, rather than as mere problem-solving or the application of principles or knowledge generated by other means. This interest in landscape form is anchored by the realization that it can be both indicative of past processes and values as well as future performance. His work focuses on coastal landscape form, with a special interest in infrastructure, public space, and ecology.
