IRIS OLIÉ Landscape architect

I am a recent graduate from the French Landscape architect school ‘École Nationale Supérieure du Paysage’ (ENSP), where I obtained two Master degree in Landscape Architecture: - Diploma d’État de Paysagiste - DEP, -European Master in Landscape Architecture - EMiLA.

Thanks to all these experiences and learning, I am eager to start my design career as a Landscape Architect and apply the skills I have learned to practice.

Throughout my studies, my goal was to design, manage, preserve and connect spaces of biodiversity. My design approach is concentrated in environmental friendly practices through the respect of fauna, flora, human practices and populations while striking a symbiotic balance with aesthetics. That is why landscape architecture is much more than a simple job to me, it is a passion, a reason to act.

My diversity in studies of literature, the arts, landscape engineering and urbanism provided me with foundational skills allowing me to develop strong landscape projects during my diploma. In the three-year program at ENSP, I participated in the exchange program, EMiLA - European Master in Landscape Architecture.

Thanks to this program, I attended two semesters in two other European partner schools. The first one in Barcelona, the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Barcelona (ETSAB), and the second one in Amsterdam. Academie van Bouwkunst (AHK).

During my studies I have become proficient in territorial site analysis, landscape design, and management. As well, I have developed a strong skillset in computing software (Cf. page 12), artistic expression and plastic practices. I have had the opportunity to work in teams, engage in public consultations and organize and present projects.

OFFICE’S PROJECTS 10

01

FRANS BOOTS

Landscape projects realised for FRANS BOOTS Internship 5 months - Amsterdam (Netherlands) 2017/2018.

During my internship, I managed to touch a lot of different fields, and to experiment concretely my own knowledge. All along the days, Frans gave me more and more autonomy to do projects.

During these 5 months of internship, I made seven projects. It was interesting to touch different scales, from the little garden (10 m2) until a relative big scale (70 000 m2).

I have a broad knowledge of mediterranean plants . It was great to compare the different cultivars and varieties from the north with the south of europe. I could propose new plants, coming from south of France that are adapted to the Netherlands.

I have already work experience on little scales at my previous internship in France for Hortus Concept – for 2 Years. Little projects where not something new for me, but all the other big projects were really challenging. It was super interesting because I worked for example on dunes designs for the project at ‘Zwembad Katwijk’.

I learnt how Frans Boots managed the herbaceous plants and the topography to design experiences in a public space. I could see all along the internship my progression, in different fields of: software, design, speed and quality of production, knowledge of plants, etc.

This job experience was one of the most rewarding for me, and comforts me in my capacities for my job. It was really a good experience and it enriched me a lot.

INTERWEAVE IN PUNGGOL When biodiversity and city are one - Singapore IFLA Student Charette 2018 - Jury’s first price

Organized by IFLA (International Federation of Landscape Architect), I could participate to the Student Design Charrette in August 2018 in Singapore.

I am proud and we were honored by the jury, which delivered us the first price of the IFLA Charette 2018. Beyond that, it was a great experience, that we could share, all together, to learn from each other.

The theme for our group was ÂŤresilienceÂť. Wu Yitong (China), Lim Ming Wei (Malaysia) and Muhammad Faisal Ramadhan (Indonesia) and I, made during this four days exercice a propose for the area of Punggol, in the north of Singapore. We start to understand what is resilience first. Resilience is about the abilities to resist and grow again, after a choc.

So, we tried to discover what are the stresses that the biodiversity could have in this area. We defined three different stresses: - the increase of demography, because open spaces disappear.

- the speed of urbanization, causes a lack of time for biodiversity adaptation.

- the modification of water flow, transform water’s habitats.

We ask ourself : when the city is growing fast, how does nature to catches up the pace of human activities?

Punggol is a strategic location to increase diversity and biodiversity in the city. Our propose was managing the space to let the biodiversity resist and evolve to this human transformation.

Our strategy was to conserving valuable patches of habitats, improving the ecological and social connectivity in the new urban development area, creating a buffer zone to enhance the connectivity and quality for wildlife, develop urban infrastructure with ecological connection design, recreating diverse waterscape to enhance the resilience of aquatic habitats and interweaving nature waterscape with urban environment.

My goal was to prioritize the sustainable circulations, reactivate the forgotten remains by opening them to the public, containing pollution through plant engineering and preserve biodiversity.

In the metropolis of Marseille, the Parc National des Calanques (National park of Creeks) is a natural space protected by seven different designations. This is a six-years-old National Park and the first peri-urban and marine park of Europe.

During the XIX° century, industrial factories (soap, lye, sodium hydroxide slowly) became established along the south coast of Marseille, exiled from the city because of its pollution. After more than a century of productivity, the last one of these factories closed in 2009, three years before the creation of the Parc National des Calanques.

A recent study made by Xavier Daumalin and Isabelle Laffont-Schwob, shows the current impact of the pollution inherited from these factories. We find up to 3000 times the standard of lead, hydrochloric and Arsenic concentration on almost all the Massif de Marseilleveyre. This pollution stays however invisible for 1,5 /2 million tourists who come over this site. The industrial sites are like pockets along the traffic lane and could be used in three different ways : -firstly, as a space of decontamination and treatment of industrial waste (as scorias), in situ, via the phytoremediation.

-secondly, they can also be used as relay points, and redistribute the flow of tourists coming to look at the White Coast and the sea, thanks to pedestrian and cycle ways.

- third, these sites could come to enhance this park entrance, by valuing the industrial and natural heritage, while educating people of pollution.

It would highlight this Parc National des Calanques : white cliffs crashing down into the sea, where the plant life could take back its rights into the rock cracks.

TOUR & TAXIS : LET ENTER THE WATER Increase the biodiversity in the city - Brussels (Belgium) 2017.

During my semester at the Academy of Architecture in Amsterdam (September/January 2017), I worked in the city of Brussels. This city has, for me, three major issues: the flooding, the pollution and the lack of natural space. This was my starting point to give a new breath for Brussels.

Studies and researches show that the city of Brussels was very polluted by the factories during the industrial era. The old river, which is now a polluted canal, should be used as an ecological corridor for the big scale. Not by destroying the walls but by adding a resistant metallic structure. Within this metallic structure, plants and animals can grow. This new ecological corridor will have the role of a riverbank to clean the water, all along her city crossing. For the middle scale, all along this new ecological corridor, few plots will function as a stepping stone for the biodiversity. It is the case for Tour & Taxis (T&T), old industrial site, partly abandoned, partly a park. T&T has still a ground extremely polluted.

Brussels is also prone to flooding. During huge precipitation, the level of water rise in different parts of Brussels. T&T is concerned by this flooding and half of the plot is under high risk of submersion.

Cleaning the ground and managing the floods can give more natural space to the city. These issues should work together at each scale of this industrial capital in reconversion. The water from the flood is manage by the infiltration in the ground and the water cathedral. Planting phyto-purifying plants permit to absorb the pollution.

The variety paths will control the water and have a different function. The most important function for these paths is to work as a dike to keep the water outside of the urban context.

This resulted in a public space of nature, without any risks, within the capital, for the people who live there.

STEPPINGSTONE OF BIODIVERSITY Let the fauna and flora enter in the city - Barclelona (Spain) 2017.

My semester in Barcelona (January/June 2017) permits me to do a project on the Rio De Llobregat, a river on the south part of the city. The asignment was to connect both sides of the river. This connection would be made due to a promenade that crosses the Hospitalet de Llobregat (south area of Barcelona) untill the agriculture fields. This path should connect people and biodiversity.

This promenade is precisely defined to pass through strategic points to link important activity pole.

One of these points is in-between the hospital and the highway. There are a lot of abandoned spaces which could be used to develop the biodiversity. It is a patchwork as stepping stones of biodiversity, with a different kind of habitat for the fauna and the flora. But this patchwork is rigorously organized in different ways for the human or for the biodiversity.

To permit the development of the biodiversity, six typologies of habitats are created: three for animals and three for humans.

humans: are without stones in the ground, more practicale.

animals: are with a lot of stones in the ground to find a hidden places for the little animals.

With these two different kinds of ground, is declined in three typologies of vegetation: low (herbaceous stratum), middle one, (shrub stratum) highest one (tree stratum). All the plants planted are local and adapt to the place. Even if the first structure is regular, the goal is to let nature develop her where she wants and just to help her to have a place to grow in this place to develop after somewhere else.

THE COMMUNAL GARDENS OF ‘AGORA’ Sharing heritage - Marseille north area (France) 2016.

I made the project the “communal gardens of «Agora» “ during my second year of the French Higher National School of Landscape Architecture and Design (ENSP). This project was very complicated for me because the north area of Marseille is a ghetto where everything should be improved.

This is, geographically speaking, one of the best places of Marseille because of its beautiful view, her orientation towards the sun and protection from the wind, but completely abandoned by the political powers.

The master plan that I proposed, within the chaotic urbanization, is to open, reconnect and give more space as possible to the people. In this weaving, a little hill with a wonderful view on Marseille (inaccessible) can be used to connect the district.

Close to this hill, there is a association of volunteers for mutual help and activities. This association owns the communal gardens, which was destroyed by the municipality to build a highway. Then the volunteer association wants to have a new place to start their new activities and gardening.

This hill can be opened to be a communal garden and connect the whole area with activities (according to my previous master plan). Following the slope, different walls support the garden plots to maintaine the ground.

A system of canals will deliver water to sprinkler the agriculture from a retention basin-tower. A path brings you to the top of the communal gardens which is managed by the association of volunteers to connect the site with the people who live in this Marseille north area.

FROM A WATER FLOW TO A WATER MIRROR

Le domaine du Rayol: the melody of the drops Rayol-Canadel-sur-Mer (France) 2016.

It was a really a great opportunity to work in the famous gardens le Domaine du Rayol made by Giles Clément during my first year at the ENSP. In the top of the gardens, there is a place where Giles Clément let the plants grow in a most natural way and maintain the minimum as possible. The assignement is about this location.

My goal is to restore the watersystem and improve it, to give a melodic experience, hereby i respect the garden philsophy of Giles Clément.

It is a very sloppy plot, kept by little walls, called: “restanque” (terraces in Occitan). Behind every “restanque”, a canal allows to collect the drained water. All the water that comes from the entire amphitheatre and the thalweg, in total 600 m3 are connected to eachother by pipes. Then, this precious commodity is stored in two pools and buried in a tank and basins. This system keeps the water during the période Cévenole (raining period), and re-uses it during the summer. It’s a closed circuit where the water is constantly turning inside the pipes to give to the visitors a beautiful music of drops.

On each walls there is pips, which delivers water, like thousand of little cascades, each at different heights, to give as much as different sounds. It is a sweet melodie which never end.

On the way, the first pool draws eyes. The first “restanque” space out shop window, is dedicated to the tree nursery. A pontoon joins the two banks of the thalweg.

A long staircase brings to the top of the hill, the summit of the Rayol gardens, giving a majestic view on the Mediterranean sea. At the end of this staircase there is a bench to sit and enjoy the place. Positioned in strategic locations, provide a sight either on the sparkling of the ponds, or to the sea from the top of the amphitheatre. Further the stairway go down provides to continue the visit of the Rayol gardens.

LE DOMAINE DU MERLE EN CRAU A path throught amoving domain - La Crau (France) 2016

The Domaine du Merle en Crau is an agriculture domain, in the natural reserve of the Coussoul de Crau. They produce the first AOC hay (Appellation d’origine protégé/ Protected origin designation). They welcome regularly public activities, that why they created an assignment for the ENSP during my first year (2015/2016) to design a path through the domain to welcome the visitors.

The path that I proposed in the Domaine du Merle, crosses different landscapes. This walk is accessible for many people and doesn’t jeopardize the agricultural activities, nor the learning occurring on the domain by the agriculture students. The experience offers many perspectives and viewpoints, arousing surprises, intrigues, questionings, knowledge, and desires.

This path highlights the seasons affecting the human activities, gives rhythm. I named the swamp the Gardance because it means ‘observance’ in the Occitan language.

My design is focus on three different periods, to shows how water creates the landscape.

Dried up in winter, full in summer, he over emerges in a short-lived way during the ‘’Cévenole’’ periods in autumn. Thanks to the hay’s culture of Crau, the pond is full because of the gravity irrigation. During the winter period, the swamp looks like a dry desert with the retracted clay.

This path is adapted to a different kind of landscapes that it crosses. In the ponds, it’s a raised wooden path, which can be used at each season. The canals are transformed in a path that permits to be oriented. They can be practicing on the banks during the water season, or inside the canal during the dry season. This maintains the conditions of the canal to don’t be vegetated, thanks to the people trampling.

Reference for Iris OliĂŠ Landscape architect DEP/ EMiLA 2016-2018 To whom it may concern.

Iris is finishing her master degree at ENSP Marseille in 2018 - She has been a willing student open to challenges. She has regularly been on practice during her student period and in the frame of the Erasmus + programme followed the EMiLA programme during a year. (www.emila.eu).

I meet Iris during the European summer school EMiLA in 2017, which she took part in. The Summer school is a 10 days’ international workshop of the curriculum lead by the five institutions running the European Master during the summer 2017. The workshop was on the newly created island of Marken Wadden in the Netherlands, an ecologic and experimental landscape construction to improve the water quality and increase biodiversity of Marken Meer.

Iris was very engaged in the project. She took part in a team proposing a challenging concept on how to host visitors and all the other wild life at the same time.

Iris has worked on many different scales at Urban, suburban and large scale territorial landscapes; by design she has understood how to create knowledge and learn by doing projects.

Her social ability enable her to communicate well her ideas to others and her design skills gives a sense of poetry to the design she proposes.

She has received grants to take part in International studio workshops and has represented ENSP at the International landscape congress IFLA WORLD in Singapore in 2018.

I strongly recommend her, Iris is a hard worker and take actively part in any work situation.
