Green Technologies in Landscape Architecture


Just as in teaching, our research focuses on cooperative collaboration and engagement with the ongoing transformation process towards climate-just urban design.

The challenge of designing with green infrastructure requires inter- and transdisciplinary collaboration on a local and international level. The classical working methods of landscape architecture - the circular design process - also offer potential as a research methodology ("research by/through design", "case study research"). In addition to conducting spatial research during the design process and analyzing existing designs, work with experimental trials will also play a role and be incorporated into the daily practice of open space design. Questions from the field will be addressed and practical solutions, e.g. for the optimization of green technologies, will be returned.
