Nono Maliar is an American architect of Argentinean heritage, shaped by a rich multicultural journey. Her practice spans the full arc of architectural process, from initial research and conceptual design to team choreography of high-end unitized curtainwall systems and on-site construction supervision. Orchestrates complex collaborations with project teams, consultants, municipalities, manufacturers, and builders, translating poetic vision into built reality.

A dedicated educator since her graduate studies at Harvard, Nono has led design studios in accredited architecture programs, served on admissions boards, and developed innovative courses that challenge conventional boundaries and probe the evolving questions of contemporary practice. Her teaching and building exist in continuous dialogue, each sharpening and expanding the possibilities of the other. Through both mediums, she explores architecture as a form of cultural inquiry, where technical precision meets imaginative speculation.



In academia, Architect Nono Maliar develops studios that foster critical inquiry, creativity, and a sense of agency in emerging architects from diverse contexts. Her teaching emphasizes craft and process, reflexive thinking and social responsibility, narrative and meaning. She fosters educational environments that empower students through inclusive pedagogy and community engagement, values that guide her work as both educator and practitioner. Through architecture, she seeks to create spaces where cultural identity, environmental stewardship, and human ecology intersect.
