Biography

Ross McLean is a Senior Lecturer in Landscape Architecture at the Edinburgh School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (ESALA) and the Programme Director for the MA (Hons) Landscape Architecture. His work is framed around the broad concept of Lifescape, which explores the convergent, living qualities of landscapes, informed by social, ecological, and technological processes. McLean has authored the book "Transformative Ground" (2019), which examines new design sensibilities in post-industrial landscapes. His research interests include island studies, with a focus on Orkney, and the development of interdisciplinary practices that encompass arts, humanities, and sciences. Notable projects include collaborations with artists and involvement in international triennials, aimed at contextualizing the ecological and cultural dimensions of small island communities.
