Anastasia is also qualified as a Landscape Architect MA and Agriculturist/Horticulturist M.Sc. Most of her recent research has focused on climate emergency issues, the extent to which spatial quality and low carbon can be delivered in regional landscape design as well as the way visual representations contribute to the design process.

CATiD’s design-led and conceptual approach aims to place quality of life and sustainability-oriented transformation at the top of the political agenda.
