Jane Mah Hutton (she/her)

Jane Mah Hutton is a landscape architect whose research focuses on the expanded relationships of the act of building – from material flows to labour movements. One stream of Mah Hutton’s work examines the movement of materials as they pass from production landscapes (plantations, quarries, factories) to designed constructions (buildings, landscapes, infrastructure) through demolition and disposal or re-use. She recently completed the book,  Reciprocal Landscapes: Stories of Material Movements (Routledge, 2019) that traces five emblematic landscape materials that ended up in New York City over the past century. Other publications include an edited volume, Landscript 5: Material Culture – Assembling and Disassembling Landscapes (Jovis, 2017), and Wood Urbanism: From the Molecular to the Territorial (Actar, 2020), co-edited with Daniel Ibanez and Kiel Moe. Her writing has been published in venues such as the  Journal of Architectural Education, Journal of Landscape Architecture, Harvard Design Magazine, Landscape Architecture Magazine,  and is a co-founding editor of the journal  Scapegoat: Architecture, Landscape, Political Economy.  Mah Hutton’s research has been awarded the EDRA Great Places Book Award (2020), the Robert and Stephanie Olmsted Fellowship (Macdowell, 2019), and a Research Fellowship at the Canadian Centre for Architecture (2019).
