GROHE X Podcast – Together For Sustainability
Episode #5: Alexandra Steed and Marcella Hansch on the topic of how a resilient nature can be created for future generations
Our 5th Together For Sustainability podcast addresses the question of how we can create a resilient nature and environment for future generations while facing challenges like sea level rise and biodiversity loss.
In this episode, podcast host Marcella Hansch, CEO of everwave foundation, welcomes Alexandra Steed, expert and chartered landscape architect from Alexandra Steed URBAN/London, as guest.
Alexandra, in collaboration with her company "URBAN," is dedicated to harnessing natural processes and systems to create integrated, vibrant, and beautiful spaces. Her work offers profound insights into innovative strategic approaches for sustainable landscape architecture, aimed at harmonising and enhancing the coexistence of nature and humanity while also addressing challenges in implementation.
She particularly shares experiences, strategies, and key moves for building a more sustainable world with her project SEEPARK (South Essex Estuary Park), for which she and her team won the World Architecture Festival award.
Listen to the podcast and learn more about Alexandra's upcoming projects in the field of sustainable landscape architecture.
