Tiago is a Portuguese landscape architect. He is especially interested in the contemporary perceptions and narratives of landscape in emerging territories. Much of his own research has been done through practice, focusing on topics such as time, speed and movement and digital media and how they affect people’s understanding of the landscape.

After graduating at the Agronomics Superior Institute – Technical University of Lisbon (ISA-UTL), he co-founded Terramorfose Landscape Architects, an award winning small practice studio based in Lisbon, Portugal.

Since 2008, he often participates as a consultant, participating in strategic decisions in major urban planning projects in the Mediterranean and Portuguese speaking countries in Africa and South America.

In 2010 he joins PROAP Landscape Architecture's team, in Lisbon, where he was responsible for coordinating the research processes and the department of international communication. He edited and coordinated significant publications and other design projects.

In 2011 he was invited as a teaching fellow in the PhD programme 'Contemporary Architecture of Metropolitan Territories', at the University of Lisbon (ISCTE-IUL), being responsible for major contribution within the Landscape Unit. He currently holds there an honorary position.

In 2012 he joined the University of Edinburgh as an Early Career Fellow and he is now part of the Landscape Architecture department. He is interested in bringing pedagogic innovation and design sensibility into teaching, as well as in further engaging ESALA with other prominent European Institutions. He is part of the European Masters in Landscape Architecture (EMiLA).
