GREEN CITY: HEALTHY CITY

Prof. Adrian Geuze, the founder of West 8 in 1987, has established a prominent international landscape architecture firm that excels in the realms of infrastructure, landscape, and urban design. Based in Rotterdam and with additional offices in Belgium and North America, West 8 has garnered a stellar reputation and comprises a diverse and multi-disciplinary team of 70 professionals, including architects, urban designers, landscape architects, and industrial engineers. Geuze, renowned worldwide for his groundbreaking contributions in the Netherlands and beyond, has created remarkable projects such as Madrid Río and Parque Central in Madrid, Governors Island in New York, Jubilee Gardens in London, and Yongsan National Park in Seoul, South Korea. In 2022, Geuze was appointed as a Professor of Landscape Architecture at Technical University Delft, and he was honored with the Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe Award by the International Federation of Landscape Architects (IFLA) for his transformative impact on the relationship between cities, nature, and people.

Geuze will engage in a conversation with David Goodman, the Dean of IE School of Architecture and Design, whose recent research focuses on architectural innovation and production during periods of socioeconomic instability. Their discussion will explore the intricate connection between healthy cities, individuals, parks, and architecture.
