Katharina Kafka

Originally from Vienna, Katharina obtained a Master of Landscape Architecture from the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU), Vienna, Austria in 2002. Her degree included a year of study at the Versailles National School of Landscape Architecture (ENSP) in France, as well as an internship with Michelle Desvigne Landscape Architects in Paris. After first working as a Landscape Architect in Vienna, Katharina moved to Dublin, Ireland in 2004 and continued her career with Mitchell and Associates. Katharina relocated to Edmonton in 2010 and joined the Alberta Association for Landscape Architects (AALA) and CSLA (Canadian Society for Landscape Architecture) in 2011. She has been working for Reimagine Architects (formerly Manasc Isaac) before opening her own practice in 2018.

Katharina has over 15 years of experience as Landscape Architect and works within the full range of scale, from Master Plans and pocket parks, to civic spaces and private yards. Katharina believes the design of the exterior space has not only an important impact on a building, but is essential to the feel and making of a place. Her designs are deeply rooted in their neighbourhoods and their natural and historic contexts. Katharina enjoys designing our outdoor spaces as vital spaces for living, working, relaxing and playing.
