Joost Emmerik & Nathanaëlle Baës-Cantillon
Landscape architecture on Thursdays

This year, Landscape architecture on Thursdays, a series of talks co-organised by CIVA and the La Cambre Horta Faculty of Architecture, kicks off with a Conversation between two international practitioner-researchers, Joost Emmerik (NL) and Nathanaëlle Baës-Cantillon (FR & BE).
Discussions based on landscape architecture projects highlight the ‘arts of making’ in response to the pressing environmental and societal challenges. These intersecting gazes between practice and research shed light onto the disciplinary culture of landscape architecture in our neighbouring countries, highlighting its singularities, but also some resonances.
This conference takes place at the Architecture Faculty La Cambre Horta - Auditoire Victor Bourgeois
