Ben Barsotti Scott, PLA

I’m a landscape architect licensed in the state of New York. I also curate exhibitions, primarily through a collaborative project called Bad Little Brother. And I’m a student of historical geography, currently researching a series of civilian-led blockades of US Navy terminals in the final years of the Vietnam War.

Occasionally, I’m  also a teacher and critic at schools of art and architecture: see the syllabus for my 2022 undergraduate course on contemporary architectural theory here. Even more occasionally, I write for architecture and urban geography titles like the the New York Review of Architecture, Critical Planning Journal, and the Journal of Landscape Architecture. You can see my full CV here.


I live and work in New York City and commute every once in a while to New Jersey. I post some of my recent and ongoing work on this site. If you’re interested in working together, you can contact me here.

BAD LITTLE BROTHER

2017︎︎︎present


Bad Little Brother is an ongoing curatorial and writing collaboration between Ben Barsotti Scott and Julie Shapiro. In 2018, we curated and designed the exhibition Unrestrooms, an unfinished survey of gender and public space, and developed all accompanying programs. We have also collaborated with artists and fashion designers to propose experimental and fantastical interventions in real space.
