Venue: B117 Theatre, Melbourne School of Design, Masson Road, University of Melbourne
Presenters: Associate Professor Karen M’Closkey
M'Closkey and VanDerSys's work explores the relationship among digital media, fabrication technology and construction. Through new media and fabrication technologies, M'Closkey and VanDerSys's work explores methods of systemic patterning to expand landscape’s expressive agency in the shaping of the public realm. Their projects experiment with formal and temporal patterns; in all cases, these methods are used to craft variation in surface appearances, as well as participate in site functions, such as water collection, plant growth, and maintenance zones. These incremental infrastructures have implications for more integrative thinking about natural systems in relatively dense urban environments and offer new expressive potential for landscape via new combinations of organic and inorganic materials. The use of these tools and techniques has created a signature aesthetic, establishing PEG office of landscape + architecture as part of the next generation in the field of landscape design.
Karen M’Closkey and Keith VanDerSys are founding partners of PEG office of landscape + architecture.
