معرفی
Kris Fox is an Associate Professor at the University of Calgary's School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape (SAPL), specializing in landscape architecture that merges digital innovation with hands-on craftsmanship. His research focuses on material phenomenology, sustainable construction using 'cheap' materials like asphalt and chain-link fences, and democratizing design accessibility. He holds an MLA from UC Berkeley (1999) and a BS in Urban and Regional Studies from Cornell University (1995).
His teaching emphasizes hybrid approaches combining digital tools and analog methods (e.g., drawing, hands-on construction), fostering innovation among students. Professional affiliations include registration as a Landscape Architect in California (License #5018) and membership in the Council of Educators in Landscape Architecture (CELA).
Key research themes include Northern/rural regionalism, field documentation, and material efficiencies. While no specific grants or awards are listed, his work prioritizes inclusive design practices and material experimentation.
