Anjie Cho Architect PLLC

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

August 27, 2013

“We have dealt with Anjie Cho as a General Contractor on a lot of projects. Starting from very small renovation, to whole house projects. we can honestly say that she has been one of the best designers we have ever dealt with. Full attention to details. Not only the bathrooms, and kitchen looked beautiful, they all created a perfect flow throughout the whole house. Pleasure to work with. From Traditional, to contemporary, we have seen a lot of her work. Anjie is an amazing designer that takes the time to understand your style and create beautiful spaces.She has wonderful ideas and is very good at laying out and staying within a budget. We would definitely recommend Anjie to anyone who is looking to re-do their house or commercial space.”

Lichten Architects

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

September 13, 2014

“In November 2013 we bought a 2 bed, 2 1/2 bath pied a terre on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Although in a modern glass tower, the apartment was done up with fusty wallpaper, heavy draperies and antiques. Lichten Craig's remit was to create a sleek, clean and modern look for the whole apartment. They stripped the wallpaper and painted, and put up gorgeous bronze wallpaper in the powder room. Joan Craig suggested white leather and lacquer furniture, modern floor lamps, and shades provided by a Chicago vendor whom she flew in to NY. This saved us a good deal of money by not using a NYC shop. Ditto for the 4 Saarinen dining chairs they had another Chicago vendor knock off to go with our Knoll table. Huzzah Huzzah. I love the substantial two tier glass and chrome coffee table, and the piece de resistance of the apartment: a large living room rug that is precisely what I wanted: a striated rug of teals and turquoises that looks like a David Hockney pool. It was custom and came in on time and on budget, as did everything else. Also, I wanted bookshelves and could not find a bookcase I liked. Joan Craig recommended building them, something I was reluctant to do but, as this is the second apartment LC has done for us, I have a high confidence level in them and agreed. They are perfect for the space and we are thrilled. The staff at LC is tops: professional, friendly, and very responsive to calls and emails. Annelise Juettner in the Chicago office has dealt calmly and efficiently with a dragon lady at my building's management company re furniture deliveries. I would have given dragon lady Polonium 210. Because LC has offices in NY and Chicago, their resources are vast and they can source the best vendors for a project at the best price. LC is flexible and can work with many different budgets, adept at integrating inexpensive items and costly ones. And as budgets can sometimes change midstream, I appreciated LC's ability to adapt when our own budget for this pied a terre shrank. Joan Craig's expertise in architecture as well as design is an added plus. We belatedly wish we had used them as the architects of our pre war Chicago Lake Shore Drive coop. I heartily recommend this team.”

August 19, 2020

“Asa is a phenomenal designer with an eye for details who also sees the big picture. he is well versed in all aspects of building in New York, from planning and design to in site supervision and execution. He is creative and know how to deal with project constraints without compromising quality. The outcome of his work speaks louder than words: both commercial and residential projects that are welcoming and eye and heart opening. Highly recommended to work with him.”

Tonos Design Studio

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

November 28, 2016

“Sam provided top-notch service from start to finish of my apartment remodeling job - mostly a gut reno of the kitchen, but work that in the end affected each room of the apartment. From big-picture conception to small details, Sam offered the perfect balance of providing insight and ideas, and realism as to what was workable, versus listening to my own vision and helping make it a reality. You'll love his work, and enjoy working with him!”

nC2 architecture llc

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

December 2, 2012

“Richard and Michael are fantastic to work with. They are very creative and highly professional. Our project is a complete gut job renovation of a 140 year old row house in Brooklyn. NC2 has come at it with complete enthusiasm from day one, and have stayed positive and focused even when we have hit rough patches. Our favorite part about working with them is their collaboration style. They do a good job of doing all the "hard work" behind the scenes, but they truly make us feel that we are part of the team. They take our feedback wholeheartedly, they are always ready to walk away from an idea they may really like if it doesn't resonate with us, and they are totally open and respectful to ideas we bring to the table. It helps that we have similar taste and style, but in general, they just have a great collaborative and respectful approach. They also have been very good to work with on budget management. We would recommend them for any jobs, large or small.”

Delson or Sherman Architects pc

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

August 24, 2012

“We hired Delson or Sherman to remodel our loft in the West Village and I strongly recommend them. I was nervous about hiring them because I didn't have a friend's recommendation. Instead I had read a New York Times story about them and studied the photos on their website. I loved their taste and, being a reporter, I really cross-questioned their references. We liked both partners, Jeff Sherman and Perla Delson, and both worked on our initial design. They came up with several layouts and the one we chose works perfectly for us. We wound up working mostly with Jeff Sherman during construction and found him to be very easy to work with as well as professional, time efficient and good at on-the-spot problem solving. He also has a good sense of humor. I'm incredibly indecisive and it worked when he gave us three choices. If I couldn't decide I let him pick and that turned out well. Our co-op board had given us a five-month deadline for noisy work and there was going to be an alarming penalty of $300 a day if we exceeded that. We finished on time and within budget (after the things I added). I trusted Jeff's recommendation for a contractor and actually hired the contractor without meeting him, a serious leap of faith that also turned out remarkably well. The Delson or Sherman office system seemed very efficient. A very endearing draftsperson, Chisato, helped to lower the cost. Everything got filed on time and within the co-op's requirements (unlike some of the other projects I have since witnessed in our building). That's it. We are extremely happy with the way it turned out. Remarkably, there's not anything we would change and I would definitely hire them again. I wish I could add more pictures!”

The Fox Group

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

January 7, 2014

“I cannot speak highly enough about my experience with The Fox Group and give The Fox Group my highest recommendation to anyone considering using them as a builder. I first used The Fox Group for a remodel and enjoyed working with Tom so much we hired him again a couple of years later when we built our next house. One of the best things about working with Tom is he has such great taste and an amazing eye for design and style. He had many, many great ideas for our house, from big things such as the look of the exterior and laying out our floor plan to details such as the wainscoting and door handles, along with everything in between. His attention to detail is second to none and his ability to work within a budget was very comforting to us. We know we received more bang for our buck (by a long ways) than we could have with any other builder. Tom really understands how to maximize a budget and produce a beautiful home for a reasonable price. Thanks to Tom, we had a significant amount of equity in our home the day we moved in! He was also very professional throughout the building process and extremely responsive whenever we tried to reach him. Tom truly values his name and brand so you know with Tom he won't cut corners at any point during the process. Tom always made us feel like our satisfaction with our home was his number one priority and he wouldn't rest until we were happy with the finished product. Another aspect of working with Tom that I really appreciated was how hard he pushed to finish our home on time. We had a hard deadline with our construction loan and despite some weather delays and other issues during the process, he pushed his subs and was able to complete our home on time. Lastly, we really enjoyed the subcontractors Tom uses. All of them were extremely professional and genuinely good people. They were great to work with and we enjoyed getting to know each of them during the building process. Again, The Fox Group is a first rate, top notch homebuilder and I give Tom my strongest and most sincere endorsement as both a builder and person.”

AMMOR Architecture LLP

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

September 18, 2012

“Have you done a gut renovation of an apartment from 2500 miles away? We did. The single decision that made the project a success and got us our dream home was working with TUG studios.From concept drawings to choice of contractors to final completion, they were available and responsive. Tom and Goil heard everything we said we wanted for our 2200 sq ft. triplex apartment. They even figured out a lot that we did not say and translated all that into a coherent whole that met with all our many requirements, from fabulous kitchen to LOTS of counter space to flattering lighting plans and color schemes. Most importantly, while not compromising on quality, they paid attention to our budget. The challenge was to make a dark and chopped up apartment with small rooms into a modern airy space. TUG's designs made really radical changes in the floor plan, moving the living room and kitchen from the parlor floor to the second floor and putting two bedrooms and baths where the living room and kitchen had been. If we had to do any kind of design or remodel in future, I would not do it without TUG.”

Archetype Architecture

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

November 12, 2014

“Archetype did an amazing job for me as architects for the gut renovation of a 8,000 sf townhouse. They created a great plan, paid attention to every detail, were highly responsive in making modifications, went over and beyond the call of duty to get drawings done with a very tight deadline, and were a pleasure to work with. Navigating the permitting process in NYC is complex and arbitrary, but working with Archetype made it quite painless. I look forward to having the opportunity to work with them again in the near future and would highly recommend them.”

FZAD ARCHITECTURE + DESIGN

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

July 22, 2015

“on behalf of my wife and myself this is to recommend to you Frederic Zonsius as an Architect and Designer. Initially we had hired a local architect to "draft plans" of our new 2000 sq ft addition. However, we just could not decide whether we like it or not or why we were ambivalent about going forward with the design. However upon one meeting with Fred where he developed sketches in front of us, we knew where the shortcomings of the design were and what the resolution should be; suddenly the process was enjoyable again! Fred works within concept which once adopted all decisions down to the colors on the wall become easy to make. We would be happy to recommend him. Despite the distance from Ohio to New York we never felt it to be a problem. His resources from the New York community were extremely beneficial and it was nice to get a fresh outlook that was not local. He design not only the architectural shell but went beyond to design all built ins, moldings and finishes!”

Is the scope of your home design project beyond simply replacing countertops or flooring? It’s the responsibility of a New York home architect to transform human needs and desires into visual concepts and habitable structures. When you hire an architectural designer, you are not only hiring someone for their architectural services, but also to manage and coordinate other parties involved in the project. As you search through New York, NY interior architects and designers, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best New York architect for my home design project?

It is best to hire a home architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. The architect is often the first person you will hire for your project. If necessary, they might also help you select and hire New York subcontractors, which can include the builders, engineers and landscaper. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the New York residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process. Different architecture firms in New York, NY provide different services, so the scope of the work can span from pre-design environmental impact studies to selecting furniture and finishes, depending on what your specific needs are.

What sort of process can I expect from a residential architect?

As far as the process goes, the architecture firm or individual that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. There should be plenty of meetings between you and your building designer until you have agreed upon a design that you are completely happy with. Always keep in mind that the designer will have building codes to follow, and likely pre-existing design limitations when dealing with a remodel, so while they might not be able to execute your exact ideas they always have your safety and aesthetics in mind. One of the most important duties of a residential architect is to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors, so you can expect them to be present throughout the entire building process to ensure everything is executed as planned.

It is very important to hire the right professional for the job. Remember that the most well-known or established designer might not provide the best architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project. Research and ask people whose work you like for recommendations. It's important to have somewhat of an idea of the style of house architecture that you prefer, as well as the amount you would like to spend. Residential architects in New York, NY are natural problem solvers. They will assess the entire situation and help you to solve your problems too. Don't settle for a single company too early. Call and interview a few. Make sure that you feel like your personalities will mesh well and that you like their professional perspective.

Questions to ask prospective New York interior architects:

What is your fee structure?
What does the cost include?
Do you have professional liability insurance?
Can you handle my special requests (ADA, LEED etc.)?
What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
What is your experience with similar projects?
When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
Can you provide me with references?
Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with your vision.)
Will you help with hiring a general contractor and subcontractors?
What do you estimate the cost will be?
What will I need to provide?
Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
