Andrew Gardner

I am a Director of TGP North.

Key Skills

I get involved in all areas of our profession from feasibility through to construction, and have picked up a wide range of skills in my years with the company. My specialisms lie in detail design, photomontage and contract management. A day spent working out how things go together then making that work on site is perfect!

Passions

The passions of the outdoors, art and nature are well trodden routes into landscape design, and I am no different, but if a site has an interesting history or story to tell all the better. I love to use those aspects of the past to tell a story and inform the future use of the site.

Proud to be in TGP

I’m proud of each of the projects I’ve worked on in my TGP career and while the Toffee Factory and South Marine Park are two that stand out for me, combining the historical with the modern in very different ways but with equally pleasing results, it is our recent scheme at Vanbrugh Piazza that has given me the most pride. A once un-used area has been transformed into a space populated and used by staff and students alike. Seeing people use one of your designs, in the way you hoped and in ways you had never considered, is the best thing about our job.
