Marta H. Wisniewska

Lecturer, Cornell AAP - Architecture, Planning

Marta H. Wisniewska is an architect and urban planner deriving her designs from an extended understanding of the genius loci with a special focus on local material availability, craftsmanship, and industrial processing skills.

Influenced by her experiences researching and teaching in contrasting contexts such as Ethiopia, Singapore, Switzerland, and Germany, she aims to activate new and alternative resources for unique and context-specific applications, aspiring to widen the architectural pallet.

Wisniewska’s work has been published in several book publications such as Building from Waste (Birkhäuser, 2014), Addis Ababa: a Manifesto on African Progress (Ruby Press, 2018), and City in Your Hands, ETH Zurich (2019). She holds an M.Sc. in architecture and urban planning from ZUT Szczecin, Poland.
