Gareth Williams
MEIGCA, MA Landscape Architecture, BSc Hons

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.
