This statement was written in 1985, when BKSK was founded. It continues to resonate for us. Even as our body of work has grown and our understanding of “meaning and consequence” has matured.

As a 50 person firm of Architects and Interior Designers, we drive projects forward by offering a full range of services – from conceptual studies, to post-occupancy evaluation, and everything in-between.

Based in New York City, and leaders in the field of sustainable architecture, we are steeped in both the complexity of the urban fabric and the intricacy of environmental forces.
