Sudor Sauna
The project aims to augment the embodied experience of the saunas and pools within by providing subtle transitions that gradually create a separation between the everyday lives of visitors and the spaces within. These transitions include spatial elements such as ramps, gradations in light, and soothing materials. The design offers a focus on sensual and experiential qualities that enables visitors to be more physically present and in touch with their own body.
Cesar Bejar
The space provides private rooms where visitors can relax within their own small sauna, reset in cold plunge pools, and cleanse within the showers. Guests check in at an entry lobby, before proceeding to a ring of circulation that offers access to the private spaces... More

Modern Dacha
“From my grandfather I inherited a modest forester’s lodge in the heart of Pszczewski landscape park. I wanted to enhance it and create contemporary dacha for friends and family.”
The idea of finishing the second house in the middle of the woods came from Investors’ love for nature and proactive way of spending spare time, as well as the need to create an asylum, standing in contrast to the quick, everyday life of big cities. Although the dacha steers away from traditional representation of a lodge, all design solutions and materials draw direct inspiration from the overpowering proximity of nature.
After analysing the project’s needs, world’s directions and sightings of nature, the surface of - initi... More

Milken Institute School of Public Health
Close to two hundred years after being chartered by Congress, George Washington University forges on in its ambitious trek to graduate forward-thinking students aiming to be the leaders of tomorrow.
Subscribing to the notion of sustainable design, the university's new addition features a seven-story open interior composed of concrete and bamboo panels - achieving an urban aesthetic with the added comfort of LEED platinum certification.
The clever use of concrete intertwined with wooden panels make for quite a challenge during installation, however, the tight radius through the building was the biggest difficulty to overcome.
The main structure - comprised almost entirely of concrete - hosts a unique contrast between the cold staunc... More

TWA Hotel at JFK International Airport
Eero Saarinen’s iconic 1962 TWA Flight Center at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City is among the most significant examples of mid-century modern architecture in the world. The landmark was shuttered for nearly 20 years after the airlines went out of business in 2001, but was later protected in 2005 when it was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Eventually, the terminal was saved when MCR and MORSE Development won the bid to turn the historic landmark into a hotel for the 21st century, which eventually opened in May 2019.
The historic Flight Center underwent a total restoration by Beyer Blinder Belle Architects and Planners, LLP; the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Preservatio... More

168 Plymouth Model Residence
Alloy has unveiled the model residence at its latest project, 168 Plymouth, designed by Rebecca Robertson. The last historic factory to residential loft conversions in Brooklyn’s Dumbo neighborhood, two 100- year-old paint factory buildings, an 1891 Brick and Timber and a 1921 Daylight Factory, have been attentively transformed by Alloy’s architecture team. Alloy preserved the buildings’ many historic elements while introducing clean and modern interiors, which Rebecca Robertson of RR Interiors used as the backdrop for her vision for a contemporary Brooklyn family’s loft.

The Standard Highline Hotel
In crafting The Standard Highline, the guestrooms had to speak to the ethos of The Standard while incorporating a finer material palette and making the experience sophisticated enough for the New York and international audiences. In contrast to the concrete shell of the building, Roman and Williams strived to give the rooms a warmth that harkened to a bee hive environment – organic and beautiful, but also efficient. The breathtaking views from the floor to ceiling starfire glass windows of the guestrooms served as the ideal backdrop to Roman and Williams’ open and airy design. Packed with texture and color and light, they are clad in customized handmade orange, black and cream tile. The bedrooms have a tambour wooden ceili... More

De Maria all daycafe
All of our work starts by identifying the client’s brand positioning. In order to design we must first know the personality of the brand and have a clear ides of the client’s vision. This client asked us to revive his Nolitan venue to what it was in the 60s, an inviting hub for the creative community.
The concept is reminiscent of Nolita’s early days when artists and the neighborhood had daily exchanges. The design highlights art and imperfection, so you feel it has been passed down by generations of local artists.
The previously dark space was given a brighter canvas and a new layout. We added texture & plaster to the walls to bring a layer of brightness to the space. By designing an arch betwe... More
