Lecture 6: Urban/Landscape Innovations in Singapore: Local Projects by Grant Associates
Stefaan Lambreghts, Grant Associates
Now fully immersed in landscape design, Stefaan started his career as an Architect and Urban Planner in Belgium. Wanting to broaden his design horizon, he moved to London to pursue an MA in Housing and Urbanism at the Architectural Association. Within a couple of years, he made the transition to landscape, recognising his underlying passion for the environment and caring as much about trees as about buildings. After more than a decade in London, mostly working on complex public realms, Stefaan joined Grant Associates in 2014. He currently leads the Singapore studio, running a wide variety of Asian projects. His architectural background and his extensive landscape experience allow Stefaan to integrate architecture and landscape seamlessly. For his design narratives, he draws his inspiration from his experiences of sites and surroundings. He won several awards for his projects and gets regularly invited to lecture about landscape.
Professors Heinrich Jaeger and Sidney Nagel of the Physics Department at the University of Chicago are pleased to offer a public guest lecture series, about innovative approaches to resolving physical forces in architecture and design, as part of their spring 2022 course. This lecture series is supported by the College Curricular Innovation Fund and organized in cooperation with the Arts, Science & Culture Initiative at The University of Chicago.
