Sound Ecology is pleased to announce its participation in LUGA – Luxembourg Urban Garden Art 2025, a major event dedicated to nature in the city, which will take place from May 7 to October 25, 2025 in Luxembourg.

This open-air temporary exhibition will bring together urban gardens, landscape installations, agricultural projects, and living spaces across various locations in the capital. The event will showcase creative and sustainable initiatives that rethink the city as a living, fertile, and resilient environment.

For this occasion, Sound Ecology will offer themed guided tours focusing on two main topics:
– Wild plants in urban environments
– Remarkable trees of the City of Luxembourg

These walks will provide an opportunity to explore the often-overlooked richness of urban biodiversity, identify the species that coexist with us daily, and better understand their ecological roles. By reconnecting participants with nature in the city, these activities aim to raise ecological awareness and encourage life-friendly practices, even in the most human-modified settings.

LUGA 2025 will be a special moment for sharing, observation, and engagement, at the intersection of science, art, and ecological commitment.

On April 7, the Sound Ecology team was pleased to deliver a training session at the Building Sector Training Institute (IFSB), focusing on a topic at the heart of today’s ecological challenges: living walls.

This session was part of the IFSB’s continuing education program designed to guide building professionals towards more sustainable practices. The training covered the technical, ecological, and aesthetic principles of living walls, as well as their role in regenerating urban biodiversity.

Living walls are not merely decorative elements: they help improve the microclimate, manage rainwater, and enhance air quality, while creating microhabitats for insects and birds. Through practical examples, participant feedback, and discussions, we explored the key success factors for these systems from both technical and ecological perspectives.

At Sound Ecology, we believe that integrating living systems into the built environment is essential to reconcile land development with biodiversity conservation. These exchanges with construction professionals are vital to advancing practices and reimagining the city as a living ecosystem.
