Listen and watch this passionate and thought-provoking conversation as landscape architects Marti Fooks and Amalie Wright meet for the first time on Zoom. This session is available as a video and podcast.
Our conversationalists for this episode are Marti Fooks and Amalie Wright. At the time of the recording, Marti was a director of Outer Space Landscape Architects, and Amalie a landscape architect at Tract Consultants and founder of Landscapology. Marti has since set up her own practice FOOKS.
The discussion ranges from the influences of their fathers on their professional lives, to the conjunction of queerness and landscape and the need to create safer places and visibility for all, to waterway restoration and community engagement – including Amelie’s Design Your Creek Week. Both agree that working in landscape is continually stimulating as the environment is ever-changing, and the outputs endlessly diverse.
This Salon was recorded live on Zoom in Summer 2021. Organised by Ali McFadyen and Emma Healy, it was supported by then Parlour Partner AWS.
