Will Sandy — Creating sustainable projects to build a new social capital
Manage episode 363653212 series 2795521
I find talking to Will is always inspiring, and though he's from a different sector I love his approach to work and passion for self initiated socially beneficial projects. Though he's a Landscape Architect by trade I find it hard to 'put him in a box', to me he's more and inventor / creator.
"Will joins the dots between architecture, art, the environment and imagination, adopting an innovative approach to the standard design process. He works across various sites, scales & styles, from furniture design, urban interventions and small-scale architectural projects, to larger strategies and masterplanning."
The youngest person ever to become a Fellow at the Landscape Institute he runs his own practice and consults with numerous other firms while also teaching at Landscape Architecture and Urban Design at Greenwich University.
His practice is currently working on schemes for the public sector, local government and for private clients, including the reimagining of a car-centric environment in South Wales, a small rewilding scheme, and a sculptural street furniture collection.
He has delivered installations at cultural institutions such as Glastonbury Festival, the Southbank Centre and several international projects with the British Council, most recently in Caracas where he led a collaborative team on the design and realisation of the Catalyst Cube.
Enjoy!
