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 robust - enhancing the built environment as an ecology for people, plants and inspect life.
Céline is currently Guest Professor in the ETH, Zurich; and in the past has been visiting Professor to the EPFL, and to Kaiserslautern.

REGISTER - JONATHAN SERGISON (SERGISON BATES)
In this episode Andrew Clancy speaks with Professor Jonathan Sergison about his work as a writer, an educator, and architect.
Jonathan established Sergison Bates Architects together with Stephen Bates in the mid-1990's, and the practice quickly gained a reputation for the manner with which it could find meaning in the actualities of contemporary construction, and in the care with which they read and articulated contextual readings of place. 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 Bates. Teaching is essential to Jonathans practice, and the work of his studio in Mendrisio concentrates on continuities in urban culture, each semester focussing on a different city.

[…] And about the body, I guess, and the body in space, and its implication in the world, yeah? Yeah, well, I'm quite interested also by how you go through space, because I believe, I mean, as a planner, we always look at maps, at sections, but at the end the way you move through the space, I believe it's the world the same, the best way to experience landscape. We organized recently an exhibition in a museum in Switzerland about landscape architecture, called ramification, and it was coupled with an exhibition about the work of Lucius Borkert, which is a very important German pedagogic architect, who invented the science of the promenadologie, which is about how you walk through space and how important that is.
