We are thrilled to share the New York Times' profile of Link Farm House written by Tim McKeough. His elegant narrative about the design process astutely describes our objectives as a synthesis of the client's desires and the site's potential. You can read the whole article here.
Thanks to Tim and the Times for an excellent piece, and to Soo and Carolina for graciously opening their home.
We are honored to be included in Architects' Newspaper's inaugural list of top 50 Interior Architects! While our work spans a wide range of scales, we are constantly interested in finding new ways of working with interior space.

We're very excited that our recent Flight Club LA project has been featured on DesignBoom!

We are honored to celebrate the completion and publication of the design guidelines we co-authored along with Fiona Cousins, Principal Arup, Penny Hardy, Founder PS and the Design Trust: Laying the Groundwork: Design Guidelines for Retail and Other Ground-Floor Uses in Mixed-Use Affordable Housing Developments. Please join us for a lively panel discussion and presentation about this new initiative.
In the coming decade, thousands of new mixed-use affordable housing developments created through Mayor de Blasio's Housing New York plan will transform the cityscape. With the power of good design, this unprecedented building boom can help foster vibrant, mixed-income neighborhoods and attractive, fully leased commercial corridors.

Laying the Groundwork, developed by the Design Trust for Public Space and its multidisciplinary team of Fellows Fiona Cousins, Penny Hardy, Hayes Slade, and James Slade in partnership with the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (NYC HPD), is a comprehensive set of guidelines for high-quality ground-floor design in mixed-use affordable housing developments. The publication invites developers and architects to think creatively about the ways buildings contribute to the life and health of neighborhoods encouraging attractive, active and resilient streetscapes. The publication includes clear objectives for effective, high-quality design and related references to consider exploring further.
