Our Team
Andrew Haggar
CMLI, BA Hons DipLA
Lead Golf Course Architect
Andrew has more than 25 years of experience in more than 20 different countries throughout Europe, the Caribbean, Asia and Africa, working for three international golf course design firms in that time. As a Lead Architect, he has undertaken projects ranging from sensitive remodelling work on old and traditional golf courses to resort master planning, and the design of Championship golf courses. His clients have included private clubs, major development groups, and owner/operators with extensive course portfolios.
With a creative approach to projects stemming from his original landscape architecture training, Andrew’s work benefits from the influence of extensive travel and his interest in the landscape, outdoor environment and other forms of design.
Design projects that Andrew has led include Rumanza G&CC in Pakistan, Thanh Lanh Golf Club in Vietnam, Vattanac Golf Resort in Cambodia, Ledreborg Palace in Denmark, and the German 2022 Ryder Cup Bid Course redesign.
Gareth Williams
MEIGCA, MA Landscape Architecture, BSc Hons
Consulting Golf Course Architect
Gareth has contributed both technical and design expertise to Faldo Design over nearly 20 years. From planning and supervision of project requirements and logistics, preparation of graphics, construction plans and quantification, to conceptual and detailed course design and master planning, he has been involved in many of the firm’s projects in that time.
Born out of a passion for the natural landscape, sustainability in golf course development strongly influences Gareth’s design work, as does his interest in efficient and contemporary design. He is a strong advocate for developing alternative forms of the game – including short course and practice facilities – and has worked closely with Sir Nick in developing design solutions that make the game more accessible. With a background in landscape architecture, he is a Member of the European Institute of Golf Course Architects and past Chairman of its Sustainability Committee.
His experience for Faldo Design includes project and design work in Europe, the Americas, Asia and the Middle East – including at Chart Hills in the UK, Lough Erne in Northern Ireland, Monte Rocha in Portugal, Laguna Lang Co in Vietnam, Thatluang Golf Village in Laos, and for the German 2022 Ryder Cup Bid Course redesign.
