SPAN Architecture

Reflecting on our art curation collaboration with UpRise Art @uprisenyc on this space at Gotham West with a beautiful piece by @_ky_anderson_ . A quote about Ky's work, below: Ky Anderson’s geometric, abstract paintings are in fact referential of quotidian subjects. Anderson firmly believes that her imagery is descriptive of the world around us, particularly in that it conveys a sense of distance. Her compositions frequently feature flat forms, limited palettes, and abstra...ct lines that allude to the horizon. Anderson usually works on a group of paintings incrementally at the same time, which is why suites of paintings often have similar colors. Other times, she begins a work and sets it aside, returning to and reworking it slowly over the course of years. Anderson does not think of a narrative before starting a work, but instead lets them appear as they are completed. - Artsy #kyanderson #uprise #upriseart #newyork #newyorkdesign #newyorkdesignweek #nyc #ny #design #architecture #interiordesign #interiors #interiorstyle #moderndesign #color #lobby #residentialdesign #residential #spring #springtime

The kitchen in our Apthorp project plays on the history and language of the building and the required function of the room. We often find that our work is not stylistically bound, and so we embrace a collaborative dialogue to interpret our clients’ visions. They want to own the space they live in, with their personal style on display and their needs answered, architecturally. #arch #architecture #design #designideas #interior #interiordesign #kitchen #kitchendesign #marble #lighting #lightingdesign #moderndesign #contemporary #interior123 #collaboration #newyork

SPAN commissioned and collaborated with many talented local artists for our Ashland Residence project. Rachel Mica Weiss’ piece, Inverted Arches in Gold, holds particular importance as she was commissioned to create a piece to tie the exterior and interior architecture together in the entry lobby. From the artist: Inspired by weaving’s relationship to architecture, and its historical use as a means to divide, control, and gender space, Inverted Arches in Gold inverts and s...oftens the classical, Romanesque arch. The work’s construction builds upon the process of warpingthe careful measuring and preparation of warp threads on the loomto grapple with the boundaries between two and three-dimensional space, between opacity and porosity, strength and fragility.

Thank you to @christiesrealestate for the feature in Luxury Defined’s article about design turning to nature - Biophilia! Partner Stonely states, Nature gave us the most wonderful toolsit was just a question of how to lace it throughout our designs. The symbiotic relationship between nature and the built environmentbiophiliais at the very heart of August Moon’s design. Appreciating the surroundings and allowing their magic to flow through the home’s spaces was at the ...heart of what we wanted to achieve. Ensuring a sense of calm and the ability to enjoy the simple things was a pivotal inspiration. #arch #architecture #dailyarchitecture #biophilicdesign #biophilia #nature #natur #archi #architecturephotography #love #daily #article #christies #international #internationalrealestate #realestate #designinspiration #design #bedroomdesign #bedroomdecor #instagood

Today SPAN celebrates International Women's Day! We are proud to have founding partner, Karen Stonely, featured alongside incredible, industry-leading women in the global real estate field. Thank you to Prime Resi Journal, and to the women of SPAN and beyond including a shout out to Laura Hammett and her important support of United By Design. Stonely states, "This year’s International Women’s Day’s Campaign theme is ‘Break The Bias’ this to me is the perfect decisive, actio...n-based mantra. 2022 is about taking decisive action when it comes to the support of women both across the world and in our industry. Architecture remains a male dominated profession and I will be doing my best to break down this stigma and support women wishing to make waves in the industry." @primeresi @charu_gandhi @ceciliahalling @naylor.jenny @mssarahward @wardandcointeriors @fionabarrattinteriors @savills @aykroydcoproperty @laurahammett.interiors @eccordlondon @conranandpartners @elicyon @theowosociety @raffles.london @internationalwomensdayofficial #IWD #IWD2022 #BreakTheBias #internationalwomensday #makerswomen #workingmother
