The landscape architect Pascal Cribier, a sensitive creator resolutely oriented towards the future, who paid extreme attention to his natural environment, has left us.
It was with his feet in the ground, physically present and open to all who solicited him for a project, that Pascal Cribier conceived his craft - his passion. Behind his humility was a scholarly botanist who loved plants and loved nothing more than his work, subtle and powerful at the same time.
A graduate of the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts in Paris, he graduated as a DPLG architect (graduated by the government) in 1978 and began working in the field of gardens. Hesitant for a long time to define himself as an architect or landscape architect, it was ultimately as a gardener that he recognized himself best.
The redevelopment of the Jardin des Tuileries, which he carried out in collaboration with Louis Benech in 1990, was the first major project that made him known.
He loved to transmit as much as to convince is engaged in the world of spatial planning, urban planning and architecture.
From 1993, he gave numerous public and university lectures and taught at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs (Ensad) and the École Nationale Supérieure du Paysage in Versailles.
We are losing one of the most striking figures on the landscape in the last forty years.
I extend my condolences to his family and loved ones.
