Louis Vuitton’s second freestanding men's retail store worldwide in Miami Design District.

We are very proud as Architecture firm to have implemented this project for Louis Vuitton.

The design raised the bar for Miami Design District that is known for its outstanding architectural creations. The project consists of signature exterior façade, custom monumental curved stair and two floors of contemporary retail interior. All of it, exceptionally delivered to very high standards.

Located on the second floor or the Iconic Bergdorf Goodman Men’s Store, this luxury bar inspired by Art-Deco Design and Parisian brasseries, creates a warm and uplifting New York setting for Michelin starred food, treats and cocktails.

This 500-foot high skyscraper designed for the northwest corner of Union Square in New York City. It is made of twin towers that are held together by space-frame, super-structure arms. The volume of space between the towers is equal to the volume of each of the towers. The towers are the same in design, with a spacious 50-foot long floor-through residences on one side and hotel suites on the other side. Public space designed as an urban oasis weaves around the bases with a ground-floor restaurant. The top of the towers is crowned with a five-story bridge approximately shaped like a circular pod. Its interior is subdivided between amenities for residents: a hotel lounge, bar and restaurant space with spectacular 360-degrees city views.

This vegetable market building was inspired by Parisian markets and works of artist Lucio Fontana. The first inspiration for the outer shell of this structure are the Parisian markets and train stations with soaring ceilings and stained glass windows. The building’s geometry is linear and close to the ground. It resembles a rolling landscape, loaf of bread or canvas stretched over unseen limbs. Whatever the connotations, the important idea is that it has the power to stimulate imagination, much like food that can rouse the senses. The second inspiration, and the building’s namesake, are the leaf-shaped windows, resembling the cuts and fissures perpetrated into the painting canvas by Lucio Fontana. The last inspirations are everyday clouds, depicted in the freeform geometry of the cloud windows, positioned across the roofs.

They begin with smaller footprints and terminate with larger roofs, which are sometimes connected.

Design for a visual focus within a city, this is a 310-foot high office skyscraper intended for a flood-prone area of an existing city. Currently the entrance would be positioned at the ground floor, but if the city is flooded over the next 50 years, pedestrian bridges can be connected to any interval of its vertical base. The windows are randomly cast across the facades relative to interior use, the window shapes are: rectangle, square and triangle.

This is a variation on a design of an Italian country villa in Vicenza, near Verona. The house is fronted by a shallow stone pool with lights and sculptural pulpit endings. The roof structure is stretched out in the direction of the pool, like a brim of a hat or golden copper wing. The roof is intended as a vast usable outdoor area to take in the rural views of the surrounding landscape.

This museum building with a permanent shadow on the ground composed of black stone paving slabs. The shadow does not resemble the shape of the building, but emphasizes the mystery of the building and the art within. The museum is intended for large-scale sculptures and installations. The roof-scape hosts outdoor exhibit spaces, a café, a restaurant and play areas.

The pursuit of purity, perfection and playful innocence is presented entirely through the art of the curtain wall and coloration of the glass. Two types of curtain-wall modules are used, spanning six floors vertically in alternating positions, left to right and vertically. The building evades dull repetition and remains in exciting visual tension. A modular skyscraper theme where the modules can repeat vertically as desired.

Design for a custom glass curtain wall for a high-rise building in NYC. The design takes inspiration from the leaves of a papyrus plant, both in shape and layering. The areas of glass that overlap and the thickening at the edges of the glass panels create a playful distortion of vision and light.

This villa was inspired by the life of actor Steve McQueen and his hobby of off-road motorcycle racing. The villa is fronted by a walled courtyard intended not only as a parking area, but a dusty. exquisite display box for his trophy vehicles. The outdoor terrace and many windows are in direct visual connection with the courtyard, underscoring the passion of a car and motorcycle enthusiast such as Steve McQueen.

This Kindergarten building resembles an open piano. A large portion of its north wall located directly under the roof feature is composed of a glass curtain wall to suffuse the atrium and three floors with light and connection to the outside. The metaphor of a “piano” also suggests that beautiful vibes are made on the inside.

Two-piece public sculpture for a busy street intersection in the hip part of town in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The pieces are positioned across the street facing each other, creating a urban relationship and focus. The larger “boogie,” made of concrete, metal and wood, serves as a street marker, while a smaller “woogie” of poured concrete ribbons serves as protection to pedestrians from turning cars.
