Nature In the City Barri Studio

Conversation highlights:

• Everything is interconnected. So at the end, the relationships between plants, insects, and even humans, are crucial for our work, especially in an urban surrounding.
• We created a garden of pollinators that allows insects to gather and colonize.
• When we see butterflies in the neighborhood it means that we are recovering, and those vegetation communities are working well. It's like a biodiversity parameter for a healthy environment.
• In response to climate change, landscape architects have to design with nature, not against it.
• We did a study of the bird species of the area and their migration behavior then designed a rooftop with plant communities suitable for those nesting birds.
• Nature is complex, vivid, random, diverse...
• With our designs we want to bring back wild, uncontrolled nature into our cities - it’s much better for the soul.
