Public open spaces and sophisticated greenery have a decisive impact on the quality of life in cities and rural areas. The consequences of climate change affect densely populated areas as well as less built-up areas. However, they are different in their manifestation, each with its own specific symptoms.
In order to develop a sustainable building culture with innovative solutions for sustainable cities, housing and living spaces, society must increasingly address the environmental vulnerability of these systems. The necessity of new mobility concepts, the integration of infrastructures in landscape design and the safeguarding of valuable microclimatic conditions are important topics in this context. In the context between architecture, urban, regional and infrastructure planning, landscape architecture provides decisive concepts and answers to socially relevant questions. It unites aesthetic, social, ecological, technical and economic demands to create a precisely fitting design.
The series of events provides an insight into projects by internationally active landscape architects who report on their work experiences in a globally networked world undergoing climate change and on the answers that a design discipline can provide to social changes.
