Founded in New York City in 1992, Building Studio Architects is a full-service architecture and interior design firm with experience in a broad range of project types, including new construction and rehabilitation of institutional, commercial, residential, and multi-family buildings in addition to private residential work.

The partners bring unusual strengths to a small firm. Partner Michael Goldblum, a Commissioner at the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, is LEED certified and brings tremendous expertise in historic preservation. Partner John Field, employs his master’s degree in Industrial Design to create buildable, meticulously detailed, coordinated construction projects. They both have extensive experience managing small and large projects and working in corporate and institutional environments as team leaders and collaborators.

Building Studio Architects is a member of the US Green Building Council, the American Institute of Architects, NCARB, NOMA, and IDSA. Building Studio Architects designed the first LEED-certified home in the City of New York and advises many clients on design alternatives in consideration of sustainable design.
We spend a lot of time and effort developing strong relationships with management teams. Earning trust by listening to and delivering on our clients’ needs and goals is the most important thing we do. We are proud that most of our work comes from repeat clients, many of whom have been with us for decades and have trusted us with repeated projects. Since we have clients from nearly every sector of the economy, we know that every industry, every use, and every building has its own culture, needs, methods, and preferences. We seek to identify those preferences and work to express them in our projects. We approach every project with an open mind and try to find the design language appropriate to the task.
