Abstract
There is undeniably an experimental quality in the work of Michel Desvigne, and no doubt this comes largely from his early scientific training, when he studied natural sciences before taking the entrance examat the Ecole de Versailles in order to become a landscape architect. It is not somuch the study of plants that first interested him, but rather the development of living organisms, the formation of reliefs on land surfaces, the harmony of settings. But evenmore, it was the way these processes were put into action in these disciplines that left an enduring mark on him. The landscape became a laboratory for verifying a certain number of hypotheses informed by the knowledge that had been gained, by the skills of agricultural engineers, by the science of hydrologists, by the projections of city planners, and so on.
