Susannah Drake is a practicing architect and landscape architect who specializes in addressing contemporary social and environmental issues through design. She is a founder of DLANDstudio design firm.

Background and education

Drake earned a Bachelor of Arts at Dartmouth College and studied both architecture and landscape architecture at Harvard University Graduate School of Design. She is both a practicing architect and a practicing landscape architect.[1]

Career

Drake founded DLANDstudio, an interdisciplinary design firm, in 2005. The firm seeks to create better urban environments by approaching design through the lens of ecology.[2] As a principal at the firm, she specializes in complex projects and a research-based approach. In particular, she is known for projects that are well-designed from a social perspective. She has worked on several projects that seek to limit the impacts of climate change. The Gowanus Canal Sponge Park in Brooklyn helps clean the EPA Superfund Site over time.[3] The Rising Currents project, a collaboration with ARO Architects, featured design strategies for urban waterfronts. The project was part of MoMA's "A New Urban Ground" exhibition in 2010.[4] Drake has also focused on improving the lived ecology of urban and campus environments. This work has been funded by the Graham Foundation, the Environmental Protection Agency, the New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, and the New York State Council on the Arts.

Drake has also directly supported the design professions. She has been an instructor for design studios at Harvard University, Washington University in St. Louis, the Illinois Institute of Technology, Cooper Union, and City College of New York. She has also served as President and Trustee of the New York ASLA and as a Trustee of the Van Alen Institute.[5]
