About
Haenke is an interdisciplinary research studio based between Prague and Montpellier, working across art and science to reconsider how plant biodiversity shapes society, culture, and more-than-human health.
Our projects take form as installations, debate forums, workshops, and university courses, bringing traditional plant knowledge into dialogue with pharmacognosy, ethnobotany, art and design. Plants are approached not as backdrop, but as active agents in the makingof shared environments.
Our work has been featured in Bloomberg CityLab, Forbes, designboom, Elle Decoration or Vogue Czechoslovakia, and has been recognized by awards including the Czech Architecture Award shortlist and Distributed Design.
In 2025, the studio initiated Free Radicals, an ongoing Creative Europe co-funded project conceived as a hybrid educational toolkit. Rooted in interdisciplinary exchange, the platform cultivates ethical, multispecies practices and seeks to strengthen the role of art and culture as forces for social change in ecologically shifting times.
