Karl Malte von Heinz (1904 – February 17, 1971) was an Austrian architect who designed a number of buildings in India. After emigrating to British India, some of his first buildings include residences for wealthy clients in Hyderabad. In the 1930s, he designed several buildings of the Jamia Milia Islamia. Detained by the government for his Austrian nationality, he resumed his practice upon his release in 1946.
After Indian independence, he designed various diplomatic buildings in the Chanakyapuri neighborhood of Delhi, including the missions of Pakistan, Yugoslavia, Thailand, and the Vatican. He also worked on private residences in Delhi. He is regarded as a major influence on the work of I. M. Kadri and several other architects of the 1970s.
