House on an Island, our recently completed guest house project on Shelter Island.
The roof gently twists from east to west, allowing the house to begin as a two-story volume facing east before transforming into a more intimate single-story space in the kitchen and living area.

House as a Garden. (2025)

We recently transformed this former raw industrial warehouse into a single family home conceived as a vertical loft: the three story residence centres around a double height living-room that serves as a courtyard, becoming the organizing space for circulation, kitchen and upstairs rooms.

House as a garden. (2025)

What used to be a raw industrial storage warehouse has become an intimate and warm residence for a young, creative couple in Brooklyn. Built across three levels, we conceived this single family home as a a vertical loft: a space that can hold many different versions of life. Work and play, solitude and gatherings, calm and chaos.

East Broadway Residential Tower.

More pixs from our walk with photographer Dario Lasagni around our tower at 222 East Broadway.
The project was conceived as a vertical village, carefully calibrated to the scale and grain of the surrounding neighborhood.

East Broadway Residential Tower photos (and a surprise one)

A few weeks ago, together with our friend, photographer Dario Lasagni, we walked the perimeter of our tower at 222 East Broadway, beginning at the Williamsburg Bridge and moving south along East Broadway.
The project was conceived as a vertical village, carefully calibrated to the scale and grain of the surrounding neighborhood rather than conceived as an isolated object.
The window openings, while appearing irregular, are the result of a rigorous inside-out process. Each is positioned in response to the specific spatial and experiential requirements of the apartments, producing a differentiated yet coherent composition.
This measured variation lends the façades a subtle rhythm and depth.

(Also shown is a photo of the time where our principal Clementina looks closely at the building model.)

For every project we build physical models. They are our most reliable tool for understanding proportion, mass and spatial relationships. A model quickly reveals what works and what doesn’t. These models evolve alongside the design, they go through different stages of details and craftsmanship. Unlike digital models, physical models are tangible and honest. They transform ideas into something real, keeping the design process active, curious and open. They surround our desks and quietly become part of our daily environment. We find ourselves peeking at them throughout the day. They take a life of their own, always revealing something new. And yes, they are incredibly fun to make!
