Madison Avenue Flagship

MADISON AVENUE FLAGSHIP

New York, NY

A Madison Avenue Flagship store is the pride of any retailer. Rodman Paul Architects worked with Geiger of Austria to design a jewel box store to showcase their high quality woolen clothing and outerwear line. The store is organized around a white wall facing the glass frontage on Madison Avenue. This wall is punched with jewel-toned, fabric-lined openings used to display perfectly composed coats and jackets, turning the store into a curio.

Design services included architecture, interior design, and custom furniture.

Place of Worship

PLACE OF WORSHIP

New York, NY

Nestled in a quiet neighborhood in Flushing, Queens, the First Church of Christ, Scientist tells the story of the Christian Scientist faith with light. The church eschews conventional icons of Christianity in favor of a more neutral aesthetic. Respecting this tradition, the main wall of the modest sanctuary space is bent and perforated with openings that catch direct and indirect sunlight, illuminating space behind the lectern. The Reading Room is furnished with bookcases fabricated from frugal pre-finished plywood, carefully detailed.

Rodman Paul Architects provided architectural, interior design and custom furniture design services to the congregation.
