atelier le balto (DE/FR)

Urbanist Véronique Faucheur and landscape architect Marc Pouzol have been operating atelier le balto in Berlin since 2001. Together with their third partner, Marc Vatinel, they design and build numerous gardens for prominent venues of art and culture such as the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, Kunst--Werken (KW) in Berlin, Villa Romana in Florence, and the Ludwig Forum für Internationale Kunst in Aachen. Plant development and human movement are an integral part of their practice. atelier le balto creates places for encounter and exchange. Véronique Faucheur (1963) is an urbanist (Institute of Urban Planning IFU Paris, 1992), has completed a postgraduate course in the history of landscape and gardens (ENSP Versailles, 1993), and has professional experience with contemporary dance and choreography. Marc Pouzol (1966) is a freelance garden and landscape architect (Landscape Architecture School in Versailles, 1993), a trained gardener (Ecole du Breuil, Paris) and member of Berlin Chamber of Architects and Werkbund Berlin. For the 2013 steirischer herbst festival centre they are working in a team with Laurent Dugua for exterior architecture, Holger Lindmueller & Grégoire Tourne for interior design, and Studio Dinnebier for lighting.
