About 

Contextus can provide fluidity between Architectural and Interior Design services, coupled with practical Construction Project Management. With a significant track with leading architectural firms and significant experience with “pure” construction Project Management, Contextus thrives to reintroduce the seamlessness of design, construction and Project Management. Along with our Project Management experience we believe that Contextus sets itself apart from traditional architecture firms based on a reinforced understanding of design practices, project constraints and the overall, multiple objectives of the project participants. In addition, Contextus practices fresh design concepts based on our ongoing research of current and future aesthetics.

We can act as the Architect of Record, Design Architect, Interior Designer, Project Manager/Owner’s Representative or any combination of the above based on our experience. Our experience in the New York City market spans 20 years. In essence, we can take a project from conception to completion.

Contextus was founded on the basis of assisting clients through the tedious process of design and construction with complete advocacy to the client and their objectives. We act purely as a liaison to our clients with no incentives from other parties. It is in our absolute interest to keep communications lines open and achieve schedule milestones and ultimately, timely delivery of our products and services.
