Author Information

Daniel Roehr, MBCSLA, CSLA, AKB. Author. Roehr is an Associate Professor at the University of British Columbia School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture in Vancouver, Canada. He is a registered landscape architect in British Columbia and Berlin as well as a horticulturalist. Daniel has earned a Higher National Diploma (HND) in Horticulture and Landscape Technology from Askham Bryan College (York, England) and a BA (Hons) in Landscape Architecture from Heriot-Watt University / Edinburgh College of Art (Edinburgh, Scotland). He is the founder and director of greenskinslab at UBC. For nearly three decades, his research has focused on international living roof design, construction, and low impact development (LID) as part of holistic stormwater management. This work is documented in his co-authored book Living Roofs in Integrated Urban Water Systems (Routledge 2015). Since 2013, he has been exploring how to make the concepts of LID accessible and acceptable to the public through animated hand drawn videos. In recent years Daniel’s research has expanded into how to teach visual literacy and multisensorial literacy to students accustomed to using the computer. Roehr is also interested in the role of architectural hand drawing as a research tool to see the environment and to guide design iterations, and he shares his drawings on Instagram. He has practiced extensively in Europe, North America, and Asia. From 1995 to 2000, he was project architect of the ground-breaking water sensitive living roof design of the Daimler-Chrysler Green Roof Project, Potsdamer Platz, Berlin, Germany. In 2013 he was a UBC Sustainability Research Fellow and was selected as a team member to compete in designing the Canadian National Holocaust Memorial in Ottawa. In 2016 he received the Killam Teaching Prize from UBC.
