Inspirational Architecture for People

PKSB ARCHITECTS

鼓舞人心的建筑，以人为本
PKSB 建筑事务所

When the Pioneer Academy in New York City opened its doors last fall, students and
teachers were heard to exclaim: Wow, this is a school? The 97,000 square foot building
by PKSB Architects, with its dramatic double height lobby and bold, colorful art-commis-
sioned mural, had achieved its ultimate goal: to inspire. For over 40 years, the award-
winning PKSB firm has been in the forefront of design innovation – with an ever-expanding
portfolio that includes academic, residential, religious, hospitality, civic, infrastructure and
preservation projects. A noted architectural critic recently described the firm’s work as
“making a framework for life.” This statement is certainly evident in the Pioneer Academy,
as it is in every project completed by PKSB, a firm dedicated to creating buildings that
better the lives of the people who experience them.

Since its origins in 1964, PKSB has gained recognition for their exquisite attention to detail
and a refined modern aesthetic. But beyond their dedication to good design, the firm is
deeply rooted in a “people-first” vision of architecture. As lead principal Henry Stolzman
states, “PKSB’s architecture is an architecture that really gets to the human use of space.
Our work looks beyond itself and recognizes that it is part of something bigger, part of a
greater purpose.”

PKSB has always been a leader in pro-
gressive architecture. Part of what defines
PKSB’s work is a willingness to take risks
and defy common expectations.
Two projects that exemplify PKSB’s leader-
ship role in re-adaptive use and sustain-
able practices are the Twin Peaks Projects
in the Bronx and the Asphalt Green Com-
munity Center in Manhattan. Both projects
required PKSB to develop solutions that
at the time were considered revolutionary.
In 1969, the Twin Parks Projects offered
an exciting alternative for public housing.
The architects came up with an ingenious
method for laying out each unit as a split-
level house within a larger whole. This way
of looking at distribution of program was
entirely original at the time. The buildings
06 CREATIVE DESIGN SOURCE · NOV 2009
reduced the number of corridors, maxi-
mized light and air, and offered dynamic,
articulated living spaces, which still reso-
nate today. These early housing projects
won the praise of the Housing Authority as
they were some of the first to demonstrate
the economic viability of the split-level sec-
tion type for publicly aided housing.
The Asphalt Green Community Center is
one of the first examples of adaptive re-
use. In fact, the firm won several awards
for its innovative reuse of the former as-
phalt plant’s infrastructure. Completed in
1978, the project was ahead of its time in
the movement toward sustainability and
was one of the first considerations of geo-
thermal energy in New York City.

Out of the firm’s desire to reinvent, re-imagine and re-invigorate, often entirely new inventions emerge in some unexpected places. A prime
example can be seen in the Stabile Hall Dormitory for Architecture and Design students at Pratt Institute. Here, the architects divided the
rooms into three distinct blocks, giving both scale and identity to the dormitories. Within each block, shared studio spaces were inserted,
reinforcing the notion of collaboration and interchange that is central to an arts education.

At Reed Library, the architects provided

unity and clarity for the SUNY Fredonia
campus. The freestanding addition acts
as a link between the campus designed
by I.M. Pei and Partners and the original
neo-colonial campus. The building utilizes
a vocabulary that speaks to the heroic
Pei campus while humanizing its scale. A
unique approach to program is manifested
in the cylindrical silo that houses the rare
books collection. The “jewel” of the project
stands as a sculptural link between the four
buildings of the complex.

The renovation of a firehouse for City Col-

lege of New York is a prime example of
adaptive reuse of a historic structure. PKSB
is converting the building into a gallery and
artist studios, reinventing the program and
configuring the space to fit new require-
ments. Moreover, the gallery will serve as
a classroom and community space for the
surrounding neighborhood. Effectively,
the design recreates a new use for an old
building and transforms it into a center for
both the University and the community.

PKSB’s original, inventive solutions provide

users with a unique sense of place and
a sense of identity that helps shape their
academic experiences.

At Primary and Intermediate School 89 in

Lower Manhattan, the firm took a unique
approach to an oddly-shaped site. The ar-
chitects decided let the interior mimic the
winding, narrow streets outside. The result
is a layout that resembles more a village
than a typical academic facility. Corridors
are treated as public streets; classrooms
are envisioned as private homes; shared
facilities such as the cafeteria, gym, library
and dance studio act as the town’s civic
buildings, each sitting at the intersection of
“streets” which form a “town center.” The
“town centers” were an entirely original ad-
dition to the school’s program and have

concept of learning space to all of their
educational designs, including their work
at the Allen Stevenson School. “The role of
buildings is to support the people and what
they do, how they come together,” says Da-
vid Trower, Headmaster at Allen Stevenson.
“We needed architects who would under-
stand that intuitively.” PKSB’s educational
spaces exhibit an innate understanding of

PKSB has been part of a new vision toward

preservation in New York. Sherida Paulsen,
a principal at PKSB, is president of the
New York Chapter of the American Institute
of Architects and has served as chair of
the New York City Landmarks Preservation
Commission. As an architect, civil servant
and leader, she has helped to enhance the
quality of the civic realm in New York. Be-
yond simply historic restoration, Ms. Pauls-
en emphasizes that “preservation can be
a catalyst for future buildings of landmark
quality.” In PKSB’s preservation work, past
and present come together in a dialogue
about the future. Within this framework, the
firm has carefully honed a unique ability to
blend the new with the old.

Upcoming renovations to the well-known

Tavern on the Green in Central Park will
preserve one of New York’s longest run-
ning dining destinations while bringing it
up to date with current restaurant culture.
New design elements will be mixed in with
the restoration of this impressive, historic
facility. The firm has also completed a fea-
sibility study for a high rise building in Mid-
town New York that incorporates existing
late nineteenth and early twentieth century
buildings. An original approach to complex
zoning and preservation issues, the project
establishes a new ground plane 85 feet
above the street in order to preserve the
buildings in their entirety.

In the twenty-first century, the notion of ar-

chitectural preservation is evolving. PKSB
was one of the first firms to approach the
challenge of preserving a Modernist build-
ing that in its original conception chal-
lenged the conventions of the past. The
Seagram Building, completed in 1958, is
the only building in New York designed by
Mies van der Rohe. PKSB has served as its
curator and architect-in-residence, main-
taining the integrity of the iconic exterior as
well as the building’s interior spaces. The
firm’s exceptional work maintaining the
Seagram Building has contributed to the
safeguarding of many other twentieth cen-
tury architectural masterpieces.

As PKSB’s approach to preservation blends

the new with the old, their planning projects
merge new developments with existing
communities. Each of the firm’s planning
projects takes careful consideration of
the community’s role in shaping the built
environment. This is perhaps best seen in
the firm’s master plan to develop Kedem
Winery Campus, an industrial site on
Williamsburg’s waterfront, for residential
use. Located in a primarily Hasidic
community, the project has been designed
specifically with its residents in mind. A
synagogue has been incorporated at the
mid level of the high rise to meet the daily
and festival religious service needs of the
community. Additionally, each apartment
features an unobstructed open air terrace
to allow for the construction of Sukkahs
which are used during the Jewish holiday
of Sukkoth.

At the New York-Presbyterian Hospital,

Westchester Division, PKSB has completed
a Master Plan for the 214-acre campus. The
complex plan involves multiple developers
and provides opportunities to significantly
enhance public open space and recreation
resources for White Plains community while
preserving and maintaining the historic
district and campus character.

PKSB’s master plan for Cooper Union

college in New York’s lively East Village
area meets the aspirations of the school
and the community in an effort to improve
the economic and cultural life of the
neighborhood. The plan outlines new
guidelines for urban planning that allow
for the expression of contemporary art
and technology within new buildings and
streetscapes. These new 21st century
expressions are juxtaposed with the
historic campus, creating a harmonious
marriage between old and new uses of
architecture.

“You are where you live….”

Says Henry Stolzman. “So much of who we

are is defined by our homes which reflect
not just our status in life but also how we
choose to project ourselves. Especially
when designed by an architect, the house
can express the owner’s deepest aspira-
tions.”

In keeping with this notion PKSB begins

their residential design process by first get-
ting a true sense of the client, their inter-
ests and passions. The design takes cues
from these initial meetings rather than from
previous projects. Faced with the sensi-
tive task of designing a home, the archi-
tects are careful not to impose their own
personal preferences and aesthetic signa-
tures. “The home should be emblematic of
the owner, not the architect.” As a result,
PKSB’s residential projects are incredibly
diverse, linked by the firm’s exquisite atten-
tion to detail.

The Root Residence in Ormond Beach,

Florida celebrates craftsmanship and ma-
teriality reflecting the couple’s love of the
handmade object. The architects worked
closely with the fabricators to produce me-
ticulous architectural details that expose the
natural character of the materials and their
methods of construction. Though grand in
scale, the bold expression of tectonics es-
tablishes a rough, natural aesthetic indica-
tive of the client’s informal life style.

TRIPLE BRIDGE GATEWAY, NEW YORK, NEW YORK
公交汽车总站行车桥，纽约市
New York City is more than just PKSB’s
location. It is their home. The principals
and staff at PKSB all share a deep love for
the city and that shows through their work.
The firm has played a major role in the
recent revitalization of various neighbor-
hoods throughout the community with their
groundbreaking new designs.
In the cases of Williamsburg and the Port
Authority, unconventional and unexpected
choices brought new-found pride to the
community. The Williamsburg Community
Center wanted a building that would be as
accessible as possible to all of the com-
munity. That message is reflected in the ar-
chitects’ entirely open design. Transparent
glass walls line the gymnasium, bringing
life and vitality to the street. This bustling
new building has become the centerpiece
of an existing public housing project.
PKSB won a competition to renovate the
vehicular bridges of the Port Authority Bus
Terminal with a design that transformed in-
frastructure into art. The high tech design
revitalizes a previously dark and ominous
streetscape. The bridges have now be-
come a glowing landmark and a visual icon
within the neighborhood.
At Father Duffy Square, PKSB brings a
sense of order and rationality amidst the
chaos of Times Square. This is the first en-
deavor to create a viable public space with-
in the competitive commercial area. Rec-
ognized with a 2009 AIA Design Award, the
plaza’s success has inspired further efforts
to reclaim civic space in the neighborhood.
The newfound civic pride at Times Square
is something that the firm strives for in all of
its projects and it is a true testament to the
enduring quality of their work.

DESIGN EXPLORATION
In looking through PKSB’s portfolio, every
project exhibits some sense of civic duty.
Principal William Fellows describes the
varied projects as all having “a consistent
thematic sense of being part of a collective
– part of something bigger.” Like the popu-
lation they serve, PKSB’s work is diverse,
vital and strives to make connections. “We
want to make spaces for people that in-
spire them to do whatever it is they have
to do in that space,” says Henry Stolzman.
“Whether it’s prayer, social meaning or
learning.” By taking a consistent humanis-
tic approach to their diverse range of work,
PKSB creates innovative, inspirational so-
lutions for projects of every size, scale and
type.
