Biography
Malcolm Woollen is an architect and author of Erik Gunnar Asplund: Landscapes and Buildings, published by Routledge.
"Woollen’s scholarly study provides a timely English-language insight to the groundbreaking work of Michel and Claire Corajoud. Setting their contribution in the context of developments in landscape architecture education and practice in France in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, Woollen gives an intriguing and informative account of Michel’s pedagogic principles and of the pair's mastery in the execution of major urban projects, including Parc du Sausset in suburban Paris, Parc Henri Chabert in Lyon, and the Quays and the exquisite Mirror d’Eau in Bordeaux. This volume is an excellent companion to Woollen's study of Erik Gunnar Asplund."
