//podcastplus.net/feed/register-architecture-landscape~2f9a0150 Conversations about Architecture & Landscape from the Kingston School of Art, London Fri, 10 Apr 2026 10:53:36 +0000 https://chtbl.com/track/http://feeds.soundcloud.com/stream/2031442352-user-529336343-register-celine-baumann-draft.mp3 In this episode Andrew Clancy speaks with Céline Baumann about her work as a landscape architect, an educator, and a teacher. Céline is a French landscape architect based in Basel, Switzerland. Her work has been exhibited at Manifesta 14 in Prishtina, Matadero in Madrid, the Swiss Architecture Museum in Basel, the Royal Academy of Arts in London and the Oslo Architecture Triennale. She has been nominated for the Swiss Art Awards in 2021, was a fellow at the Akademie Schloss Solitude in 2020, alumna of the Future Architecture Platform in 2019 and was awarded the Youth awards of the European federation of landscape architects in 2018. Celine’s practice makes spaces which seek to form an open ecological relationship between human beings and the diverse fauna and flora of each specific site. Based on ideas of intersectionality and care her work encompasses research, exhibition and landscape design. Naturally collaborative Céline argues for attitudes to landscape which are at once generous, permissive, and ro...

Their practice is one concerned with the public in many forms. Often their clients are public bodies, their work is very much for the public, and they often seek to incorporate these public voices into their design processes. In many ways they carry a tradition here with a long lineage in architecture - of architectures role in ameliorating, improving and adjusting - as a part of politics and of society more generally. They do not have a naive view of the positivist political possibilities of architecture, but rather see its political and social relations as a fundamental constituent. In their own words "We are interested in an architecture that is an active participant in the actions, movements and conversations that form society.” So their work has a beautiful capacity to be read in high and low terms. It is engaging playful and rigorously resolved. It is participatory in its gestation and draws its ideas fro...

These sensibilities were already evident in a series of essays written by Jonathan and Stephen before the establishment of the practice, and this culture of writing continues with the collected essays released periodically in volumes entitled 'Papers'. The practice has garnered significant national and international acclaim - including the Schelling medal and the Tessenow Medal. In 2008 Jonathan was appointed as a Professor in the Accademia di Architettura Mendrisio, a post he continues to hold. He moved to Switzerland in 2012, and no directs the Zurich office of Sergison B...

Their practice works from a deep reading of the sites they work on - a process that incorporates ecology, people and place as ways to build a narrative that guides the projects formation. The work has been published extensively including monographs from A+U and ElCroquis, and numerous awards including the Schelling Medal. In this rare conversation with Steph we talk about her route to architecture, the people who shaped her journey and how she practices now. What comes across recurrently is that there is no one route to the subject, and education is a not a system, but a form of becomming fueled by curiosity and care. https://www.6a.co.ukAt the outset we mention the Drawing Matter Summer School - which is a free week long course for students 15-16 to experience a taste of an architecture education prior to making a decision to study it.

This practice has from the start had a very clear position, with each project presenting itself as a typological study in a way - refined to an essential reading. Building its innovations from a close reading of history particular attention is paid to plan and form to allow each project possess a singular character. This work is intertwined with teaching and research as an essential part of the practice - which includes making publications on numerous architects from the point of view of the practice - including James Stirling, Aldo and Hanna Van Eyck, and Giancarlo di Carlo. Kersten is full Professor at the Accademia di Architettura Mendrisio, and both he and David are visiting Professors at Harvard GSD. https://officekgdvs.com——Credits:Register is the Research Group i...

Anna investigates and writes about the politics shaping our cities. In particular she tracks how certain forms of global capital are increasingly informing more and more of what makes their fabric. Streets, squares and housing are now frequently being shaped by pressures that have little consideration of the needs of the vast majority of their citizens. Her two books 'Ground Control' and 'Big Capital' are essential reading (click on the link to her website below to buy copies). She lucidly makes visible the impact of policies, regulation and disinterest on the populations of cities, and calls for an engagement with politics to seek a reaffirmation of the states role in building social housing, among other measures, as a vital part of the social contract. Her new book, forthcoming in 2026 will take an even more ambitious frame - encompassing cities across the world. https://www.annaminton.com——Credits:Register is the Research Group in the Department...

Jo is Professor of Architecture in EPFL Lausanne, and runs his practice, Jo Taillieu Architecten, from his home town of Ghent. He established this practice in 2004, and between 2009 and 2019 worked in partnership with Jan deVylder and Inge Vynck. In all his work, in collaboration or sole practice, Jo brings an open and curious sensibility, based on a close reading of each site and its potentials. This attitude allows him to see ordinary things anew, and to propose lyrical and playful works which are expressive of their conceptual and physical assembly. This is not collage, but a synthesis in which each component is vividly present, and time is expressly held in its articulation of how things have been made, adjusted or kept.https://jotaillieu.com——Credits:Register is the Research Group in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London www.kingstonarchitecture.londonHead of...
