Carte Blanche XXI:

As part of Carte Blanche XXI, VOGT Landscape Architects will temporarily occupy the Architecture Forum Zurich. With "Exhibition Office," the exhibition space will become a place for designing, producing, and exchanging ideas.

The concept unites key elements of VOGT's working methods. These include the cabinet of curiosities, with content related to overarching themes such as biology, geology, and psychology. The project wall illustrates the firm's development over 25 years, showcasing projects, research, and experiments—not in a rigid, linear fashion, but as an ongoing exploration of themes, methods, and processes.

The exhibition will be accompanied by a variety of activities and events, including workshops, lectures, and discussions. It is conceived as an open working environment and a platform for dialogue between practice, research, and the public.

Opening: December 11, 2025, 6:30 p.m.

Welcome and introduction to the exhibition by Lorenz Eugster, Board Member of the Architecture Forum Zurich. Maren Brakebusch, Head of Office Vogt Landscape Architects, Thomas Kissling, Head of Office Vogt Landscape Architects, Ascan Mergenthaler, Senior Partner Herzog & de Meuron
