Marika Neustupny (born ) is a founding director of NMBW Architecture Studio that was established in Melbourne in 1997. She has lectured in design and urban research at RMIT University since 1995 and currently sits on the Course Advisory Panel for the RMIT Architecture Program.

Neutsupny's architectural work with the NMBW Architecture Studio has a focus on specificity and the 'crystalisation' of concepts of inhabitation which are concerntrated into a single material or design element. The architectual design she is known for is therefore characterised by a taut, stripped back quality.

Neustupny has been active public speaker in Melbourne, presenting for Open House Melbourne in 2013 and giving a lecture on Tokyo architecture for the National Gallery of Victoria in their design week in 2017.
