NYC Design & Build

WHAT WE DO

 

Design & Build

Whole-home planning and construction services for brownstones and townhouses. Our team manages every aspect of your project, from layout reconfiguration and structural coordination to MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) upgrades. We handle permits, scheduling, and on-site management, ensuring a seamless process while considering neighbors and building logistics.

Townhouse Renovations

Specialized renovation services tailored for townhouses, with a focus on historic sensitivities and unique architectural features. We coordinate structural changes, upgrade essential systems, and manage all necessary permits. Our approach ensures your townhouse renovation is handled with care, respecting both the building’s character and the surrounding community.

General Contracting

Experienced field management, disciplined scheduling, and clear communication—paired with professional protection and tidy jobsites. We coordinate trades, inspections, deliveries, elevator reservations, and building quiet hours so your project keeps moving.

Interior Design Services

Bespoke, precise design that fits your life and your building. From space planning and elevations to selections and specifications, we curate materials and finishes, prepare documentation, and keep aesthetics aligned with performance and code requirements.

Kitchen Remodeling

Smarter layouts, durable surfaces, and thoughtful lighting—coordinated with building rules and DOB requirements. We plan for appliance specs, ventilation, power/water needs, and storage ergonomics so your kitchen performs as beautifully as it looks.

Bathroom Remodeling

Efficient, code-compliant solutions for the most technical room in the home. We plan for waterproofing, ventilation, plumbing branch lines and valves, and building constraints (e.g., wet-over-dry considerations) to deliver a clean, durable result.

Decor Support

Finishing touches that tie the space together—paint schedules, window treatments, furnishings guidance, and styling support—so your rooms feel complete the day you move back in.
