Designing for Action: Gena Wirth

Thu, Jun 18    2pm

Gena Wirth (SCAPE) Gena Wirth, FASLA, RLA, works with cities, community advocates, and landowners to reveal the immense ecological and cultural potential of public landscapes. As Design Principal, she translates research into practice, leading the design and implementation of complex, multi-stakeholder landscapes—including public and private waterfronts, regional trail systems, parks, plazas, and climate adaptation plans. Gena is also a tenacious advocate for ecological systems design across the design fields, both as a member of the non-profit Dredge Research Collaborative and through past teaching positions at Harvard, Columbia, Syracuse, and Rutgers universities. She also serves on SCAPE’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee (DEIC), helping advance the firm’s commitments to social and racial justice within its work and throughout the field. She is co-author of Silt Sand Slurry, published by Applied Research + Design Publishing.
