Chair
Ian Witte
I am a Landscape Architecture Master student who has been in Wageningen for a few years now. I have been with Topos ever since we started reviving it in 2022, because I admired the concept of this place where students could write about, share knowledge and inspire from our field in science, in a fun and entertaining way. Personally I love writing and drawing and being inspired by the many beautiful places that this world has to offer.

Hi, I'm Yixin! I am currently in my first year of the Bachelor's in Landscape Architecture.
