About Adrienne's Work

Adrienne Grêt-Regamey is Professor at the Chair of Planning Landscape and Peri-Urban & Urban Systems, (PLUS) at the Institute for Spatial and Landscape Development, ETH since 2008. Her research currently focuses on understanding how the interactions and/or actions of humans shape landscapes at various temporal and spatial scales, using different land-use decision models in forecasting and backcasting modes. For fostering participatory landscape planning, she investigates how people perceive the landscape in a state of the art audiovisual lab, where state-of-the-art 3D visualizations and auralizations of landscape changes are generated and decision support tools developed. She explores intensively how an iterative process between design and science can allow co-creating place specific responses satisfying human needs and demands for well-being in a sustainable manner. Adrienne Grêt-Regamey is the author of more than 100 peer-reviewed articles. More information on the Planning of Landscape and Urban System group at ETH Zürich can be found under www.plus.ethz.ch.
