Brooklyn, NY
Expertly juxtaposing contemporary tastes with traditional design elements, Elizabeth Roberts is a registered architect in NY and has been shaping built environments in New York City for over twenty years, establishing her own firm in 1998 after studying architecture at U.C. Berkeley and historic preservation at Columbia University. Located in Brooklyn's Gowanus neighborhood, surrounded by Brownstone Brooklyn, her studio brings the sought-after sensibility of its home borough to every project: a healthy regard for history overlaid with a clean and lively newness. Founded with the desire to engage one-on-one with a like-minded clientele, the studio has grown into a tight-knit studio family of eight architects and four interior design staff who distill the wants and needs of every client into a refined personal aesthetic. The studio offers full-service architecture services and full-service interior design services and many projects benefit from the blurring of the lines between the two disciplines.
Though Roberts specializes in crafting residential environments and in assembling a range of thoughtful interiors, the studio also enjoys an ever-expanding roster of distinctive commercial projects with an appreciation for public spaces that resonate with the studio’s understated practice. Roberts believes that one of the most important activities in any successful project is listening closely to her clients, many of whom are leaders in fashion, film, art, and music. As celebrated figures in their own creative industries, these clients come to the studio with a polished set of interests that, through engaged conversation and timely collaboration, inspire the final look and feel of every project.
Equally comfortable and qualified to work on converting lofts or landmarked buildings, and often combining the two, Elizabeth characterizes her designs as “showcasing” the elements in a space that make it unique, drilling down to the essentials to allow enough ‘quiet’ around an object for it to be seen. The studio is acclaimed for this carefully honed aesthetic, bringing a welcome warmth to urban minimalism.
