Today, founding partners Marion Weiss and Michael Manfredi went down to Washington, D.C. for a leadership dinner at the Military Women's Memorial. The story of the memorial is also the story of the inception of Weiss/Manfredi.
The design competition for the memorial was first announced in 1988. Marion and Michael were nudged to enter by Michael's mother who served as an Army nurse in World War II. A year later, their design was unveiled as the winner. The director of the memorial, General Wilma Vaught told them, "If you have a firm, you have a commission." They quickly asked a good friend, David Curry, graphic designer, to make business cards for the press conference the next day, flipped a coin to see whose name would come first, and then acted as if it had been that way all along.
One of the competition constraints was that the design must incorporate the existing hemicycle designed by McKim, Mead & White. The design for the memorial pierces the formerly blank niches of the hemicycle’s granite retaining wall, leading to glass-enclosed stairways that ascend to an upper terrace which offers views of the cemetery above, the gallery below, and the city beyond.
An excavated arc of space between the hemicycle and the cemetery forms a commemorative gallery. A 240-foot arc of glass tablets, held in place by a stainless-steel armature, is suspended over the gallery. These tablets are carved with texts by and about the women who have served. Sunlight passing over the inscriptions creates legible shadows on the marble wall of the gallery; ephemeral memories and histories are told by shadow and light.

It’s been an exciting month at Weiss/Manfredi! We’re very happy to announce that the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens has won NYCxDesign’s Iconic Project: NYC’s Shining Moment Award and the Schwartz Reisman Innovation Campus at University of Toronto has won the OAA Design Excellence Award. What an honor to receive both!
We’re thrilled to share that Longwood Gardens was featured on CBS Sunday Morning this weekend as part of its annual “By Design” episode, including an interview with Marion Weiss and Michael Manfredi on WEISS/MANFREDI’s recently completed renovation and expansion of the historic 1,700-acre garden in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania.

In “Longwood Gardens: A jewel of nature,” correspondent Jim Axelrod traces the evolution of Pierre S. du Pont’s extraordinary vision—from a small farm purchased to save its trees from being sold for lumber, to one of the world’s great public gardens—and highlights Longwood’s ongoing mission to provide “joy and inspiration to everyone through the beauty of nature, conservation, and learning.” The segment beautifully captures Longwood’s unique blend of history, horticultural wonder, and future-facing design. The centerpiece and largest single element of Longwood Reimagined is a new living, breathing, 32,000-square-foot glasshouse designed by WEISS/MANFREDI, with gardens and pools designed by Reed Hilderbrand.

Today, we gathered for a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the ‘nearly complete’ Barbara and Gerson Bakar Gateway building, the new home of the College of Computing, Data Science, and Society at UC Berkeley, designed by WEISS/MANFREDI in collaboration with Gensler. Officially opening in time for the fall semester, it will serve as a campus hub for AI-driven discovery and interdisciplinary collaboration. Marked by its distinct, open stairway, the building is conceived as both a physical and intellectual connector, linking each floor through layered, transparent spaces that support a diverse array of researchers and scholars harnessing the power of new technologies to develop ethical solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges.

"We have created the intellectual infrastructure to support this work, and now we have a stunning new physical space to support it as well. I don't think we have a better alternative than human-to-human collaboration," said Jennifer Chayes, Dean of the College of Computing, Data Science, and Society at UC Berkeley (pictured)
WEISS/MANFREDI celebrates the groundbreaking of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) Lincoln Center West Initiative, a major reimagining of Damrosch Park and the Amsterdam Avenue edge of Lincoln Center’s iconic campus. Designed in collaboration with Hood Design Studio and Moody Nolan, the transformation reimagines the relationship between performance, landscape, and civic life, opening the campus to the city and creating new opportunities for community gathering and cultural exchange.

At the heart of the project is The Baron Theater, Lincoln Center’s first freestanding theater in more than 50 years, set within a new landscape of groves, gardens, shaded gathering spaces, and flexible public plazas. Inspired by Lincoln Center’s modernist legacy while introducing contemporary, community-focused spaces, the design creates a seamless connection between performance and everyday public life.

Exciting to see more construction progress during a recent team site visit to NJPAC’s Cooperman Family Arts Education and Community Center. The choreography of construction continues to reveal our design of the building’s spatial rhythms. The building’s curved steel frame and rising concrete walls are beginning to define a new civic threshold for Newark, shaping spaces for performance, learning, gathering, and movement. As the structure takes form, the project’s layered circulation and interconnected public spaces are becoming legible within the evolving urban fabric.

What an honor to have the Brooklyn Botanic Garden Visitor Center featured in New York Review of Architecture’s first ever Guide to New York City! Barry Bergdoll’s piece offers a lucid, beautifully written account of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden Visitor Center. Attentive to movement, light, and sequence, the text describes the project as a continuous landscape, an extended threshold that choreographs entry through calibrated shifts in pace, direction, and view. Bergdoll’s account captures the pavilion’s understated ambition to shape experience through flow and attention to detail.

Last Friday, right when the cherry blossoms peaked, we took a field trip to our project, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden Visitor Center and Overlook!

If you have visited before, did you notice these architectural details?

🌸 The curves of the Visitor Center are designed to hug the canopies of the trees that welcome you on Washington Avenue.
🌸 The handles of the doors to the Visitor Center are custom-made and emphasize the streamline geometry of the building.
🌸 The building almost disappears into the environment with the glass design; however, bird-safe measures are also taken to ensure that this is a space enjoyed by all living spirits.
🌸 The Overlook slopes elegantly without the hinderance of handrails. It is enjoyed safely by people with different degrees of mobility.
🌸 The 27-degree bench built into the Overlook are designed for a comfortable lean back, slowing down your time on the slope while you read or sunbathe relaxingly on them.

If you haven’t been to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden or haven’t noticed these architectural details, maybe this is your cue to do so! We hope to see you there this summer. 🤸‍♂️🌻
