Bio/Research

Dr. Paine taught community design, green infrastructure planning and professional practice. Her research was in areas that include Canadian design history and practice, heritage landscape conservation theory and practice, cross-cultural design, visual preference assessment and community design in support of human health.

Recent graduate students working with Paine as an advisor have been engaged in topics that focus on urban design, urban greenways, industrial heritage, cultural heritage landscape conservation, design for human health, tourism planning, community design and landscape as site-specific art. These students applied their research to sites in Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Bahamas and Malta, and at closer sites in Guelph, Toronto, Collingwood and rural Quebec.

Paine is the recipient of numerous awards for design, planning, research and communication of heritage and contemporary landscapes. She has presented her work and research at universities and conferences and has published in professional and scholarly journals nationally and internationally. She gave a paper at an international conference on education in landscape architecture in St. Petersburg, Russia and participated in a retrospective on Canadian landscape architecture at the CSLA 2009 Congress in Toronto.

A licensed landscape architect in Canada and the United States, Paine has served as president of both the Canadian Society of Landscape Architects and the Ontario Association of Landscape Architects and is a past president of the Landscape Architecture Canada Foundation. She is a fellow of both the Canadian Society of Landscape Architects and the American Society of Landscape Architects.
