celebrating 25 years in SoHo

We built our practice in SoHo. Over twenty years, we've renovated buildings, designed new construction, built out retail spaces—learned the neighborhood from the ground up.

Now we're renovating our own loft here. Three residential conversions in this single building. A larger development taking shape nearby.

The work stays consistent: understanding what a space needs, respecting what's already there, building thoughtfully. SoHo taught us how.

2 Park Avenue Window Replacement Master Plan

We finally made it to present our latest project at the Community Board! Always a good feeling when the time comes to post the notice for the upcoming meeting. 

The Community Landmarks Committee approved the proposal unanimously!

art placement day at 35 Worth!

Always an exciting moment: art placement mock-up at the lobby of 35 Worth Street, the loft building renovation just completed by @trastudio. The artwork is one of Robert Traboscia's "banners" series, the image, a composition of photos of the 35 worth's facade, celebrates the act of crossing the threshold to the interior, by inviting the visitor to reflect about the exterior of the building. The design of the facade connects to the adjacent landmarked buildings: folded aluminum pilasters add directionality and create unexpected shadows echoing cast-iron details, the subtle articulation of the spandrels recalls the large rusticated stones of nearby historic buildings. The metal façade panels, which TRA has used widely on projects, intentionally differs from ornate historic detailing to highlight the contemporary, but contextual aesthetic. @trastudio_interiors @caterinaroiatti.trastudio #tribeca #adaptive reuse #nycarchitects
