Need A Shot Of Landscape Architecture?
Well Then, We Have It For You!

It was a spectacular convention: Instead of the expected 600 participants more than 1300 landscape architects from as many as 74 countries were attending the 48th IFLA World Congress of the International Federation of Landscape Architects. The topic was: Scales of Nature.

Just a few facts and figures to begin with: Several pre-congress meetings of the IFLA World Council and the Committees of IFLA, 3 conference days in the Kongresshaus Zürich with 8 key note speeches in the mornings, 116 presentations that took place in parallel in 5 session rooms in the afternoons plus 220 posters on display, 2 round tables, an exposition with 15 exhibitors, a student competition with an unprecedented number of 360 entries, 36 technical visits, an open firm evening, a platform of current research presented by a number of different universities and research institutes, the inaugural meeting of the initiative "Green City Switzerland", a welcome reception in a huge tent at the lakeside, a festive gala dinner, a farewell party which nobody having attended will ever forget, and finally several post-congress tours showing Switzerland's multifaceted landscapes.
