The work of the New York-based firm Gabellini Sheppard Associates, founded in 1991, is distinguished by a sculptural finesse with the elements of space, light, and material. Mediating between needs and desires, the studio designs each environment and product as a frame through which perception is heightened and the quality of use enhanced. They brings their design expertise and passion to projects of many types and scales, from urban and commercial master plans to residential, hospitality, retail, and art spaces. Organized as a multi-disciplinary studio or atelier, Gabellini Sheppard Associates comprises a versatile, cosmopolitan team of design professionals who contribute diverse skills, languages, and cultural fluencies. The firm’s three partners—Michael Gabellini, Kimberly Sheppard, and Daniel Garbowit—have led the firm to earn over 60 honors and awards from organizations including the American Institute of Architects, the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design, Progressive Architecture, the Municipal Art Society of New York, and the International Interior Design Association, as well as editorial features in numerous international publications.
