spannweiten - Landscape at hand scale

Wagon Landscaping is a Paris studio founded by Mathieu Gontier
and François Vadepied.
Wagon Landscaping finds out and develops its project concepts in
practising and gardening landscapes, and observing plants and nature
dynamics. The agency practice is based on ecological science and biodiversity
developments, which Wagon Landscaping partners share in
teaching (at Ecole Nationale Supérieure du Paysage de Versailles, in
architectural universities in Russia and Italy).
Wagon Landscaping projects address a narrow niche of smallscale
situations, the modes of attention and engagement with landscape
that Wagon practices offer pertinent answers to how we could
rethink the approach to landscape in other typologies and scales.
Wagon's work is often conceptually intriguing and bold, yet based on
minimal transformation, mainly dealing with conditions for growth
and studying dynamics of the soil, plants and animals. A range of
projects address asphalt opening and investigate the aesthetics that
emerge from an ethical position of leaving the material in place.
