Internationally recognized as one of today's most important and pioneering landscape and interior designers, the Dutch designer Petra Blaisse continues to define new and increasingly ambitious roles for landscape and interior design. In contrast to architecture's static and immutable severity she devises flexible and flowing solutions that interconnect interior and exterior. Her designs are often poetic and colourful, but they consistently provide astute and elegant solutions to complex technical problems.

Petra Blaisse contributes to important projects in Europe, Asia and the USA both as an independent designer and in association with urban planners and architects such as Tim Ronalds, SANAA/Kazuyo Sejima, Macken & Macken, OMA/Rem Koolhaas and Michael Maltzan.

The book 'Inside Outside - Petra Blaisse' provides extensive documentation of key projects, features the designer herself in conversation with the editor Kayoko Ota, and includes essays by a range of experts, making it an indispensable source of inspiration for architects, engineers and designers, as well as providing a new impulse for the whole field of architecture.

The Dutch interior and landscape designer Petra Blaisse is an outstanding creator who insists on new and more ambitious roles for landscape and interior architecture. With her team and in collaboration with city planners and architects Blaisse intervenes in important projects such as Seattle Central Library, Hackney Empire Theatre. (London) Mercedes Benz Museum (Stuttgart), Casa da Musica (Porto) and H-Project (Seoul).

'Petra Blaisse is a signature poet for our Age of Extremes. She modulates the threshold between selves and others, dissolving potent drops of yin into our pounding waves of yang.' - Herbert Muschamp, architecture critic

'Petra’s work draws on an unusually broad repertoire. Her lovely interiors are elegant and stylish and her gardens are full of life, but on closer investigation both reveal themselves to be ingenious solutions to architectural issues.'- Brian Eno, musician

'In a constant struggle for the right to autonomy against established structures, Inside Outside’s work offers solace and revelation with its ability to invade and overtake architecture with imagination and beauty, without losing its edge.'- Rebecca Gomperts, founder Women on Waves
