On vous raconte des salades / Atelier Altern

Subscriber Access

Last week, we introduced Atelier Altern and their landscapping vision for the historic French town of Toulouse. Today, we bring you their second chosen work for Amiens which is for the islands of the Hortillonnages. The project, ‘On vous raconte des salades’, which translates to mean ‘to spin a yard’ is about the installation telling a story of forgotten varieties of salad.

More about the proposal after the break.

“We wanted to take up two small and abandoned islands of the Salad Harbour, and to make them a medium of developpement and communication for old and forgotten varieties of salad,” explained Aurélien Zoia & Sylvain Morin.
