Jessica Gabler was awarded 1st prize for her Master's thesis "Integrated target species mixed planting", in which she succeeded in developing an intelligent tool that can be used to generate mixed perennial plantings for the special promotion of wild bees, the desired design and functional character of which can be determined with framework data on location factors, importance as a pollen source, etc.
Caitlin Otte qualified for a 2nd prize with her bachelor's thesis "Keeping the peace", in which she deals with cemetery development processes and recommendations for action for municipalities in order to further develop these ecologically valuable places.
Melanie Wilke also received a 2nd prize for her Master's thesis "Between Nature and Landscape", in which she developed a catalog to highlight climate adaptation measures and communicate them in a low-threshold manner for participation formats. The award-winning works can currently be viewed in the Baukunstmuseum NRW, in a series with the award-winning projects of the nrw.landschaftsarchitektur.preises 2024.
