How can landscape be designed in a future of increasing dynamics and uncertainty? In view of rising hydrological amplitudes and climatic challenges, established methods in planning disciplines are reaching their limits. Through transdisciplinary dialogues, the colloquium brings together diverse perspectives – from intuition to simulation, from design to computation – and connects processual methods, perspectives, and design strategies.
