Niels De Couvreur:
=> Communicating a Vision
- Dissecting the landscape to individual layers and combining these; makes it possible to define the landscape characteristics.
- The landscape is a very complex matter to understand and making a basic classification makes it understandable.
- The human influence on the landscape is the last in the hierarchy of the landscape.
- We as human beings are the last part of a much bigger story, however we see our position at the top. We need to find our correct place when we are at a decision-making position toward the landscape.
- Landscape sketches as a basic tool
- The landscape is one of the most complex matters and has connections to various parts of the society. To make this complex matter understandable for all parts of society is crucial to make it accessible for everybody.

The fortress - was built between 1622 and 1638. Inside the fortress stands Guia Chapel, originally established by Clarist nuns, who resided at the site before establishing the Convent of St. Clare.

Burgplatz in Dusseldorf is located on the site of the old castle in Dusseldorf which was built in 13th century at Rheine river. The castle had attracted so many attentions as a painting gallery an later became parliament of Rheinland in Germany. After several fires only the castle tower was preserved. At the Burgplatz the northern Düssel flows into the Rhine, where the banks can be reached by a free-standing staircase. Especially this staircase is a popular meeting place for locals and tourists in summer as public space.
