Founded in 1994 by Dubbeldam, Archi-Tectonics NYC, LLC is a research-design studio with offices in New York City, Amsterdam, and Hangzhou. Dubbeldam and Justin Korhammer, partner since 2016, lead a multi-national team of architects, engineers and consultants that work across scales and types. The studio’s design approach is rooted in systems thinking and digital design optimized across all aspects of a project—from parametrics, 3D printing and FTF manufacturing to performance and user experience. This results in non-standard buildings that have character and identity, deriving inspiration from the far past to excel in the global future.
