Linn Runeson and Eric Reid of the landscape architecture and urbanism studio edit will deliver a guest talk at the Daniels Faculty on Thursday, October 5. 

The pair co-founded edit, which is based in Oslo, Norway, in 2018. At the heart of the practice is a profound desire to make landscape an essential part of creating meaningful and sustainable habitats for all living beings.

The title of their Thursday lecture, which will take place from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. in Room 330 of the Daniels Building, is “In the making.”

Runeson and Reid often collaborate with architects, engineers, artists and researchers, among other specialists, on complex urban landscapes. They are currently engaged in a diverse range of projects, from the planning and design of gardens and public spaces to larger-scale territorial strategies.

Part of this semester’s Integrated Urbanism Studio, the lecture is open to all.

Exploring design’s agency in dealing with such complex subjects as the climate crisis, decarbonization, housing and spatial justice, the Integrated Urbanism Studio fosters interdisciplinary collaboration by requiring the Faculty’s architecture, landscape architecture and urban design students to work together on shared projects.

This lecture is the second of several guest talks slated this term for the Studio.
