Landscape architecture // FUSION retrospectives with Peter Latz and Wigbert Riehl

Landscape Architecture - Peter Latz - 1973-1983
Interlocutor: Wigbert Riehl, Department of Landscape Architecture I Technology

With his contributions to the Frankfurt Green Belt and the Duisburg-Nord Landscape Park, Peter Latz still stands for a significant change in landscape architecture today, which has made disused industrial sites an integral part of the urban landscape in need of design. The associated design principles are still the inspiration for the landscape architectural conversion of conversion areas worldwide. He discusses current development trends and design approaches with Wigbert Riehl.

FUSION Retrospectives

The Reform University Kassel is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Time to take stock and look ahead in architecture, urban and landscape planning as part of the FUSION lecture series.

The FUSION "Retrospectives" in the winter semester 2021/22 will focus on where we come from and what lasting accents our department has set. Pioneers who were central to the development of the department's profile will present positions and contributions in a review of their work at the university and beyond. In conversation with guests and colleagues, they reflect on the significance of architecture, urban and landscape planning at a reform university and in a rapidly changing society.
