Based in New York City, we're an architectural design firm providing commercial architecture, home architecture, & showroom architecture design and consultation services. We also provide design and architecture services for long-range motor yachts!

We have designed and executed well over 100 residential projects with budgets from less than $100,000 to over $5 million. These include single-family residences, additions, and apartments, loft, and townhouse renovations. Their scopes of work cover a broad spectrum from solely decorative work to “total gut” renovation projects and all-new construction. The second long-range motor yacht we designed was launched recently. We recently completed two projects where floors were added on top of existing residential buildings, in one case converting a single-floor apartment into a triplex and another where an entirely new apartment was added. A feature of many of these projects is their comprehensive interior design by the firm, including custom-designed furniture and finishes as well as art selection and custom art commissions.

Among our commercial projects are showrooms for Odegard Carpets both nationally and internationally, showrooms for Artistic Tile in New York City, Manhasset, Chicago, Dallas & currently Nashville, as well as film and sound production facilities, restaurants, numerous private law offices, & other showrooms and trade show exhibition booths for the home furnishings industry.

Stephen Wanta’s work has been published in national and international magazines and books, including the Somoroff Residence, a loft-inspired by the Kaballah and quantum mechanical theory, in the recent books Maximalist Interiors, and Lofts – Designers & Design. Mr. Wanta appeared along with 3 projects – one of which was just starting construction – on OpenHouse NY focusing on loft projects.  More recent work has appeared in Old House Journal and a family compound he designed in San Antonio was selected for the 2017 AIA Chapter Tour.
