Zeynep Göksel is a multidisciplinary designer working across landscape architecture, urbanism, and the public realm. Her experience includes parks and public spaces, cultural and institutional landscapes, waterfronts, and urban districts at scales ranging from intimate sites to large urban frameworks. Her practice is grounded in rigorous design research and inquiry, with a curiosity for what places can reveal: from unexpected tensions and relationships to joy and wonder. This extends to the spatial dimensions of urban conflict, particularly around questions of memory, identity, and belonging in Lebanon and Palestine.

Zeynep holds dual master’s degrees in Landscape Architecture and City and Regional Planning from Cornell University and a Bachelor of Liberal Arts from Sarah Lawrence College. Before joining dwg., she worked at Snøhetta, Sasaki and Marpillero Pollak Architects. Her experience beyond design practice includes nonprofit development and cultural work, including at Storefront for Art and Architecture.
