DETAILS | The goal was lightness. A stair that feels present but not overpowering—open to the water beyond. By letting the railing components blend seamlessly into the main structural body of the treads, the staircase reads as a single, quiet object. Every material choice was intentional, from color to texture to scale, allowing the elements to interact without competing.

We recently completed the renovation of the Center for Childhood and Adolescent Behavioral Health at New York-Presbyterian’s Westchester campus. The historic building and its surrounding grounds were fully gut-renovated and thoughtfully redesigned to promote healing, safety, and comfort. New interior finishes—featuring color blocking and warm wood tones—create a youthful, welcoming atmosphere, while the reimagined central courtyard encourages community and connection. In addition to base-building upgrades, we designed a new drop-off driveway and enhanced main entrance to improve accessibility for all visitors.

Our clients vision prioritized stronger visual and spatial connections between the wing and the main residence as well as the integration of multiple uses: indoor swimming, lounging, exercise, gaming, and housing a collection of saltwater fish.
