The Firm
Benjamin Andres Architekt is a multidisciplinary architecture and design firm founded in 2017 in New York City. We understand the lifestyle needs of our clients and prioritize them equally with time and budget parameters towards the realization of informed designs that will stand the test of time. Our appreciation of history and detail goes hand in hand with the integration of modern building technology. Our work is not limited to any particular style.
Benjamin Andres Architekt creates innovative designs that address and transcend functional and environmental considerations, and are, importantly, beautiful. Our clients value quality and know that good design is never superficial. They recognize that the quality found in their projects comes from the thoroughness and open mindedness of our thinking as much as from the material construction.
Benjamin Andres Architekt has professionals licensed to practice architecture in the states of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut and is qualified to provide a complete range of architectural design services for new construction and adaptive reuse of existing buildings. We have worked in many of the most significant residential landmarks in New York City, including the Eldorado at 300 Central Park West, 834 Fifth Avenue, and One Sutton Place South, among others.
Benjamin Andres Architekt is currently engaged in apartment renovations on the upper east side, an upstate farmhouse renovation, and a furniture showroom on Park Avenue South. Our Interior Design services integrate seamlessly with the architectural design and technical aspects of each project, providing complete oversight of the project from start to finish.

"We worked with Benjamin on a design to transform a property that has been in the family for over 50 years. Benjamin's stunning and innovative design was eclipsed only by his kindness, patience, caring, and steady manner. Our every question and curiosity was met with a smile and gentle guidance. We learned so much from Benjamin, consider him a friend, and are seeking another project for his expertise and vision."
