Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture, Department of Landscape Architecture & Regional Plan
Frank Sleegers teaches design studios in landscape architecture and urban design.
Sleegers research and creative work fall into two areas: The first one is phytoremediation as landscapes of sensual experiences and green infrastructure. The second area is the building and organizing of site specific ephemeral art work in urban environments. Both are explored in his interdisciplinary Urban Design Laboratory as alternative strategies for urban renewal.
Frank Sleegers is a practicing landscape architect with an office in Hamburg, Germany. Contributing to the livability of city life, his professional work includes numerous award winning competitions in urban design, parks, and plazas. Built works in landscape architecture include intimate gardens, roof top gardens, and renewal of urban and regional parks. They are generated by the use of narrative images, transformed to make the landscape legible, and create a sense of place for people.
Prior to joining LARP in 2006, Frank Sleegers was a lecturer for landscape architecture design at the Department for Urban Planning - HafenCity University Hamburg, Germany from 2002 to 2005.
