  4. Beyer Blinder Belle

    Comments Off on Beyer Blinder Belle

    Beyer Blinder Belle was founded in 1968, in the wake of the urban renewal movement in the United States, when the social fabric of cities, communities, and buildings was compromised by the prevailing attitudes about planning and architecture. We pioneered and defined a different approach to the design of the built environment that focused on architecture empowering people — their interaction with each other on streets and in neighborhoods, their pleasure in moving through the city, and their connections to the surrounding physical fabric.

    This mission has guided us for more than five decades and has shaped a broad and award-winning practice — now 190 professionals in New York City, Washington, DC and Boston engaged in architecture, planning, and interiors. A persistent exploration of historic, cultural and civic meaning guides our work, while our design is contemporary and reflects the materials and technology of today.

    Planning, restoration and the design of new buildings are the fundamental underpinnings of our practice. Many of our projects involve the stewardship of historic buildings in sensitive urban sites — the work for which we have become best recognized. Our deep sense of identity and evolving perspectives on design have guided our practice in new construction as well as master planning and urban design. With our clients and friends, we continue the dialogue.

  5. Milk Crate Furniture System

    Comments Off on Milk Crate Furniture System

    About

    The Washington Heights working group suggested using milk crates to activate the neighborhood’s busy Broadway median. These milk crates with a dolly base can be used to create fun, lightweight, weatherproof furniture that can be nested together to decrease storage space. This open space activation allows for social distancing and is flexible to fit different street needs. By using milk crates and plywood for seating, this is an affordable tool that can be implemented throughout the city during the warmer months.
