I am a Berlin based landscape architect. My work focuses on urban landscapes and their products. In an investigational manner I am trying to understand how different spaces are being lived, perceived and constructed.
After studying Landscape Architecture with the specialization in open space development, I moved to Zurich and started working for Vogt Landscape Architects. In order to understand the sites and cityscapes in which my work is placed in a broader context, I enrolled in the Master program 'Spatial Strategies' at the Art School Berlin. The aim is to understand how different spaces are being lived, perceived and constructed, as well as how they could become more inclusive rather than exclusive. Mapping and documenting movements and situations within cities is one of my favorite tools for pointing out, how movements or non-movements affect our everyday life, but also change less urban and rural landscapes. A special interest of mine is to investigate the relationship between the human being and nature. In particular, which societal and emotional value society links to plants and trees.
