Brick in Architecture Award Winner 🏆
Rising 23 stories in Midtown East, reinterprets New York’s masonry legacy through a warm gray brick façade defined by strong vertical articulation and sculpted massing. A single custom chamfered brick unit was used to create woven patterns, corbelled detailing, and layered texture throughout — from recessed window bays to the intricately shaped entry.
The precision of the hand-laid installation brings depth and shadow to the façade, while stepped terraces, balconies, and green roofs introduce a human scale to the streetscape. The result is a building that feels both timeless and distinctly contemporary — rooted in craft, materiality, and the enduring strength of brick.
