Maryann Thompson
Maryann Thompson, FAIA, was educated at Princeton University and the Graduate School of Design at Harvard University, where she earned master’s degrees in architecture and in landscape architecture. She brings to her practice an interdisciplinary approach in which issues of site and landscape are central to design thinking. Ms. Thompson received a 1998 AIA Young Architects Award, which states that “...although Maryann has been in practice for less than a decade, she has made a significant contribution to architecture. Her work reconnects architecture with the landscape and celebrates tectonics, materials and a poetic approach to design."
Ms. Thompson is a professor in practice of architecture at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design. She has taught design as a visiting faculty member at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Rhode Island School of Design, the University of Virginia, the University of Michigan, and Rice University. She founded Maryann Thompson Architects in 2000. Prior to that time, she was a founding partner of Thompson and Rose Architects.
