S3 Architecture

S3 Architecture is the Studio for Sustainable Shelter, an Architecture, Interior and Urban Design Studio based in New York City. We are a full service architecture and design firm offering development and construction management services which can facilitate building our designs with local teams in the New York metro area, Hudson Valley and Long Island. We have designed new buildings, interior renovations, history building conversions and urban designs for residential, commercial, educational, retail, hospitality, and entertainment projects. This cumulative exposure and a collaborative approach with designers, engineers and energy consultants have prepared us to successfully complete large and small projects with varied programs. We design in the New York urban and ex-urban context. These projects can be found in Manhattan high-rises, up-and-coming neighborhoods in the Boroughs, New York's Hudson Valley, Long Island and in rezoned areas where departed industries have presented us and our clients with the opportunity to salvage urban relics and imagine new occupancies. Our team includes LEED Accredited Professional staff, whose sustainable design approach utilizes green, renewable materials and energy-efficient systems in construction, thereby doing its part in preserving the environment. Our firm's design approach adds further value to our clients by passing on energy cost savings. We produce designs with functional modernist aesthetic, and in response to an existing historic or industrial context. We work with every client to evolve a unique and functional design response to the program, budget and schedule.
