Martha Schwartz Partners

Biography
Martha Schwartz, Landscape Architect
Martha Schwartz is a landscape architect and artist with a major interest in urban projects, creating public realm spaces that engage with people, and build community through intelligent, focused, yet unexpected ideas-based design. Her background is in both fine arts and landscape architecture and is a Professor In Practice at The Harvard Graduate School of Design here she has taught since 1992.

Her mission is to explore the relationship between landscape, art and culture and challenge traditional concepts of landscape design; find opportunities where landscape design solutions can enhance the social, environmental, and economic sustainability of a place and raise them to a level of fine art; and make landscape design critical to the sustainability of our surroundings. Martha has over 29 years of experience as a landscape architect and artist collaborating with a variety of world-renowned architects on a diverse portfolio of projects. She holds a Doctor of Science (DSc) from the University of Ulster, and is the recipient of numerous awards and prizes including the Cooper- Hewitt Museum National Design Award for her body of work in Landscape Architecture, an honorary fellowship from the Royal Institute of British Architects, several design awards from the American Society of Landscape Architects, and visiting residencies at Radcliffe College and the American Academy in Rome of which she is a Fellow. She has lectured both nationally and internationally about the landscape with her work featuring widely in publications as well as gallery exhibitions.

Philosophy
Martha Schwartz Partners was founded in 1990 to provide a full range of landscape design services conceived and executed at the highest artistic level possible. Over the years, our practice has evolved from providing landscape services primarily for private sector urban environments to large-scale public projects, land reclamation and planning studies on complex sites. Our landscape designs have received award-winning attention, and our work has been featured in numerous prominent publications. To create these innovative landscapes, our office explores the relationship between landscape, art, and culture, and challenges traditional concepts of landscape design. To implement our designs, we offer a full range of services including Landscape Design, Master Planning, Urban Regeneration, City Branding, Site Planning, Urban Design, Art Commissions, Public Realm and Consultancy. Currently, Martha Schwartz Partners has two offices – one in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA and the other in London, UK. Our two locations give us the flexibility of coordinating projects from either office with Martha Schwartz, as President, involved in directing both locations.

MSP believes landscape architecture lends a positive effect on the community by providing a healthy environment that engenders freedom of thought, creativity and curiosity. It is from those beliefs and values that our designs are realized. Over the years we have evolved with the environment and changing ideals of our society while remaining innovative and forward-thinking, staying true to our convictions that landscape design is critical to the health and sustainability of our surroundings. Our design philosophy emanates from a deep passion for exploring surrounding environments and pursuing quality over quantity. As we envision ourselves as a part of ‘nature’, aesthetics are a necessary component of environmentalism. The aesthetic quality, or design, of our environments will determine their success and relevance to our respective cultures. The aesthetic quality of our work begins at the preliminary concept and design development stage. Our energies are ignited at this stage as we feel strongly it is the concept, the vision shaped by our team and the client that collectively creates the path to excellence.

Our philosophy motivates us to conduct extensive research and develop flexible design frameworks that conceive developments as integrated with the surrounding community and the landscape and furthermore, it inspires us to bring total commitment, talent and time to each project. We take our cues and design inspiration from the site and social, economic and environmental context. We develop a range of design concepts and strategies, receive input from the client and its constituency through presentation and dialogue, and redesign incorporating the input received.
