About me
Chaos manager, facilitator and madness coordinator. Katarzyna is a landscape architect based in Warsaw, Poland. Since 2015 she has been a member of the editorial board in Magazyn Miasta (Cities Magazine) while editing a column that focuses on the urban situation in different countries worldwide. She also curated an exhibition “Design in public space. Change” (2015) and "Design in public space. Do we have a problem?" (2017) at Zamek Cieszyn, a center of research and documentation of culture and design in Cieszyn, Poland. Katarzyna has been a conference coordinator for reSITE for nearly 5 years between years 2012-2016 where together with her colleagues they tried to connect leaders across sectors to collaborate in order to create a city that is more livable, competitive and resilient for the next generation than it is for this one. In 2016 and 2017 she has produced, together with Canal 180, series of short video interviews with architects and designers (under reSITE and Element Talks logos). In her design work as a landscape architect, she is mostly focused on creating public spaces that are accessible, functional and attractive for all future users. The social dimension and human interaction of design are her core interests.
