The caliber of their work reflects their passion and a clear understanding of how to create uplifting spaces that enhance human performance. > > I strongly believe Turett Collaborative is one of the top design firms in NYC **★★★★★ — davidchan666, July 2013** > Worked with TCA for four years in a difficult but ultimately rewarding conversion of a multi family townhouse to a single family townhouse. Not only was the design beautiful, but they were very hands on in the full implementation of the vision. I recommend them enthusiastically without any reservations. **★★★★★ — pkaveelementary, July 2013** > Wayne Turett and his colleagues designed 3 rooms in my apartment. The process working with Wayne and his architects could not have been more open, rewarding and creative. They were paragons of patience, flexibility, and really had great instincts about how to deliver something that made me very happy when I didn't even know what that was! The choice of contractor and their oversight of the contractor was brilliant as well. **★★★★★ — rleibovi, July 2013** > TCA did a fantastic job on my townhouse. From the first day that I met with them, they distinguished themselves with their ideas, thoroughness and follow-through. They not only came up with creative ideas, but they adapted them to my needs and implemented what I wanted. Their follow up and attention to detail throughout the process was terrific. They are easy to deal with and take responsibility for their work to the very end. I highly recommend them. ## Selected projects - [Tahari Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tahari-residence-pj-vj~7832394) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 18 - Description: Elie Tahari, the fashion designer behind his namesake brand, worked with The Turett Collaborative (TTC) to design his Central Park West residence in New York City as a sanctuary above the city.
