About us
Studio Céline Baumann defines nature not merely as a backdrop, but as a powerful political and social actor. Our work translates the silent wisdom of the botanical world into the urban fabric, dissolving rigid boundaries between humans and non-human entities.
In Studio Céline Baumann design language, a river is a living being liberated from its century-old concrete corset; the pioneer plants bursting through broken asphalt are the true citizens of the city. Beyond aesthetic greenery, the studio invites us to an ecological confrontation, reminding us that plants hold their own assemblies and that nature, at its core, embraces a queer and boundless diversity. Through winning competitions and prestigious projects, as well as evocative installations stretching from London to Milan, Studio Céline Baumann proves that landscape architecture is a matter of justice and memory, not just gardening. Each project serves as a manifesto for a more porous, inclusive, and resilient future. Listening to the whispers of the soil, we step into a world where plants are finally recognized as fellow citizens.
