Firm Description
KURV ARCHITECTURE D.P.C. is a New York City based architecture, urban planning, design and development firm. We are a unique multidisciplinary team that combines award winning DESIGN methodology and state of the art ARCHITECTURAL design technology in order to improve upon the product of BUILDINGS and SPACES created new or otherwise reimagined by the business of real estate development.We are foremost an ARCHITECTURE firm, specializing in knowing where to add tangible VALUE to a project through the implementation of unique award winning DESIGN. The word DESIGN is used in the broadest sense to describe the full scope of a project’s development process. Therefore, we work at all scales and stages of the process to ensure that increased value is always returned as a result of our direct involvement.
Our broad services include land use analysis, zoning studies and presentations, variance proposals, highest and best use feasibility studies, parametric modeling of building pro forma, architecture and interior design concepts and presentations, full project design development, construction documents, construction administration and coordination. We also provide general consulting services, owner’s side project management representation, and technical consulting as well as project progress inspections.
Whether we have skin in the game or are acting as consultants, we work hard to make sure that added value shows through to the end in every detail of a project.
Our company's role and mission is to apply our collective knowledge and experience of the worlds of real property, buildings, ARCHITECTURE, structures, interiors, building systems, and construction in addition to the world of industrial DESIGN, industrial manufacturing, production, and digital technology onto NEW ideas and experiences for better buildings, better development projects and ultimately a better built world. Simply put, we provide a smarter built world by leveraging our unique DESIGN knowledge, our industry contacts and accumulated first hand experience.
We are unique in our multidisciplinary approach because we design, model and oversee the production of the entirety of a building's integrated components, from the foundations and superstructure to the art that hangs on the wall, integrating everything else in-between; kitchens, lighting, plumbing, flooring, textiles, ceramics, electronics, millwork, materials and the HVAC. No other design - development studio in the world can bring this broad spectrum approach to detail into the world of buildings in such an wholistic way.
We've all heard that a good BUILDING or SPACE is more than a sum of it's individual parts, but what happens when everything from the development process itself down to the door handles you touch are individually well designed parts collectively working together for the bigger picture? KURV’s built projects have established a reputation for increased value and better BUILDINGS and SPACES that positively affect the end user's lives while creating value for the communities where they are found.
