ARCHITECTURE is one kind of art you do not chose to experience
We live, work and play experiencing built environment. Concisely, or unconsciously we are influenced by buildings and structures around us and architects need to always remember that they doing it for all of us. At Elena Kalman Architect you will find our designs as harmonious with nature and built context as our relationships with clients.
RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS
Elena Kalman, AIA started her architectural practice in 1989 with a focus on residential design, which remains her favorite architectural form. Residential architecture, more than any other kind, is about collaborating with clients, listening to them, trying to guess what kind of house would become a true home for them.
COMMERCIAL PROJECTS
In the last fifteen years, Elena’s practice has included many multi-story apartment and condominium buildings in New York City. These building present a different kind of challenge: each of them needs to be a “bestseller,” attracting residents from a targeted demographic and garnering media attention. The architect needs to strike a delicate balance between bold innovation and wide appeal. Our success in being both cutting edge and popular is evidenced by our multi-year, multi-project relationships with many commercial clients.
RELIGIOUS, EDUCATIONAL & PUBLIC ARCHITECTURE
Every architect dreams about designing a building with a “soul” or a spiritual mission. These structures enable Elena Kalman, AIA to do her most challenging and gratifying work.
