Vonn Weisenberger is a multidisciplinary designer and social justice advocate working across the fields of planning, architecture, and exhibition design to drive social impact and shape a more equitable and sustainable world.
My focus is on civic and cultural projects for the public good, practicing design that empowers diverse audiences to explore vital stories, create and activate meaningful spaces, and enrich community life. I combine my expertise and enthusiasm with a deep appreciation for the importance of inclusion, working collaboratively, and developing project- and site-specific solutions. I bring energy, humor, and humility to every project and strive to make the planning and design process fun and engaging to all. I am driven by my love of people and public spaces, my desire to drive change through research, design, and advocacy, and the urgent need to address climate change. I currently live in Brooklyn with one fiancé, two cats, and 97 plants.
My work spans multiple design disciplines and scales and has been featured in the New York Times, Architectural Record, CityLab, Dwell, the Architect's Newspaper, the LA Times, and Slate.
