Showcase

Hotel Chelsea

Built in 1883, Hotel Chelsea is both a landmarked and SHPO protected historic building in NYC. Working for ownership directly, roles ranged from a senior designer for both architecture and interiors, to project manager of the onsite construction team. The hotel restoration and redesign required onsite redesign and direction daily, as each of the 200+ rooms required different preservation needs and design layouts.
