About Us

Eisner Design based in NYC and Hamptons, NY was founded in 1991 by Joseph Eisner on the principle that architectural design is an active, rather than a passive element in our lives. Design must reflect and adapt to the continuously changing conditions of contemporary life as well as be a source for social change in its own right. Careful research, conceptual clarity, progressive modernist thinking and a minimalist sensibility are the hallmarks of our architectural practice. As strong proponents of sustainable design, Eisner Design incorporates green building fundamentals in all that we do. EisnerGreen, a division of Eisner Design, is dedicated to the greening of existing buildings. "Architecture is more of a process than a product. A dynamic space continues to respond and react, to evolve and adapt with its occupants."

We've been working with Joe on a project for close to a year. He has been consistently thorough, on schedule, insightful, knowledgeable and helpful on multiple levels. His oversight of the project has been both professional and personable, a key factor for us. His designs are tuned in to what we want.

I hired Eisner Design for a condo conversion project. Joe Eisner was very professional, knowledgeable, and explained every step of my project. Their ideas and plans were inline with what I wanted. Through the ups and downs, dealing with difficult inspectors and various filings issues beyond our control, Joe, Sonia and team seamlessly managed timely execution of requested changes while keeping within budget. I am grateful to have had the Eisner team work on my project.

Joe and his team were very responsive and proactive in helping us create our ideal basement playroom space. He was able to take all the images and ideas that I gave him and come up with a cohesive and well thought out space and design that my 4 children and my husband all love to be in. The team had a great eye sense of design and vision.

Joe Eisner is very talented with thoughtful, modern design. He meticulously transformed our 400 square foot Manhattan studio into an intimate jewel box . He's organized, responsive, and innovative.

We hired Joe Eisner and his team to renovate our Manhattan apartment. The Eisner team was incredibly creative in coming up with innovative solutions to combine our apartments more seamlessly, open up the space, and modernize and brighten an otherwise old and dark apartment. They listened carefully, were very responsive to our needs, both architectural and financial, and recommended and worked seamlessly with a fantastic contractor. I would highly recommend them.

Hired Eisner Design to help us design and renovate our flagship location in Park Slope. It was by far the smartest move we made. In the few months since we have opened, LITERALLY every single person that has come in has complimented on how stunning the place looks! I can't express how fortunate we feel to have worked with Joe and his team. Never in our wildest dreams did we envision having such a beautiful place. Every little detail from the microdot paint to the lighting was done brilliantly. There are not enough words to express how nice, professional and trustworthy Joe is. Knowing we had Joe, his team and a contractor he normally works with helping us with the project was the best peace of mind. If your looking for a top notch architect, Eisner Design is the way to go.

I hired Eisner Design for the design and oversight of a 10,000 square foot, ground-up condominium development in Manhattan. The design was well-thought out and the spaces flowed extremely well, bringing in maximum light from all exposures. The materials and finishes were well-integrated and made a strong impression on all of the condo buyers. The team was very responsive throughout the 2-year project. Their turnaround time was excellent. Their deep knowledge of NYC building code was also extremely valuable. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend Eisner Design.

I can’t say enough about Joe Eisner and his team. Joe is very professional and creative. always so focused on the needs of the clients and the final results are beautiful and shows in all of his finish out detailing . He and his team were detail orientated and great communicators , extremely responsive and timely.The attention to detail that he put into the work shows in the final result. The work they delivered with the project was exactly what we looked for transforming a traditional home to a clean, contemporary yet elegant that fits our style. Joe and his team worked very well with our contractor and subcontractors as one team .It is a true pleasure to work with such a talent. We strongly recommend Joe and his team to any homeowner considering a construction project and anyone that enjoy home with a modern elegant touch.

We hired Eisner Design to renovate our Victorian townhouse in Manhattan over a decade ago. Eisner saw immediately that the challenge was to open up the space, bring in more light and add an airy quality, often lacking in these historic row houses. Eisner began by removing walls to give us an open floor plan with living space, dining area and kitchen running seamlessly together. To access the garden, Eisner replaced two small windows and a door with a nearly ceiling to floor windows and large central glass door, effectively bringing the outside in. This was an ingenious solution that changed the entire first floor. Another detail Eisner came up with was to turn the staircase to funnel into the middle of the floor, rather than the entrance, enabling the construction of a coat closet and the creation of an entrance foyer. I recommend Eisner Design for any projects, whether for a second rural or beach home or an urban apartment. He has a sensitive and innovative approach to design and his expertise in Green design is also a huge plus.
