Award-winning landscape architect, researcher, and educator Rebecca Popowsky has been named the Wilks Family Director of The Ian L. McHarg Center for Urbanism and Ecology. Housed in the Department of Landscape Architecture at Weitzman, The McHarg Center was launched in 2019 as a transdisciplinary platform for collaborative research on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the publication of McHarg’s groundbreaking book ‘Design with Nature.’ The Center funds and broadcasts original scholarly research, convenes students, faculty, and practitioners, and awards the annual McHarg Fellowship. Popowsky most recently served as a research associate and the OLIN Labs coordinator at OLIN, where she co-led its internal research practice since 2018. Developing innovations in waste-based material design and construction, soils engineering, and practice-based research models, she has established partnerships in the public, private, nonprofit, and academic sectors. In her capacity as landscape designer at OLIN, Popowsky contributed to a wide range of design, planning, and construction projects. Popowsky has a long history with Penn, having earned her MLA and MArch degrees from the Weitzman School in 2010. She joined the faculty in 2015 and has taught core and advanced design studios and professional practice courses in the Department of Landscape Architecture. Popowsky succeeds Billy Fleming, who was instrumental in conceiving and producing many of the Center’s public programs and contributed to numerous research initiatives, including as co-editor of ‘Design with Nature Now’ (Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, 2019) with Fritz Steiner, dean and Paley Professor; Richard Weller, professor emeritus of landscape architecture; and Karen M’Closkey, associate professor of landscape architecture and editor-in-chief of the department’s interdisciplinary journal ‘LA+.’ https://lnkd.in/epJaWkVE
