Firm Description:

Studio ST Architects is a full-service architectural firm located in Manhattan that is dedicated to exploring the embedded logics of materials and structures to generate new spatial experiences. They believe in innovative and responsible design and are intrigued by computer technologies that change design and production methods, striving to apply these tools in creative ways.

Studio ST’s built work is a combination of high-end residential renovations and budget-conscious construction projects for real-estate developers. Among these are a small apartment building in Brooklyn, a number of high-end duplex renovations in Manhattan, and a single family house in New Jersey. We recently started working on two public buildings; the renovation of the 14th Street Y and the Kesher Synagogue in New Jersey.

Studio ST also regularly participates in international competitions and was invited to submit designs for the Mediatheque in France and the Hoboken 9/11 Memorial. Their work has been published in various architectural magazines and monographs in North America, the Middle East, Europe and Asia. Studio ST frequently collaborates with other firms. Studio ST and dZO worked together on the design of the Mediatheque and the Hoboken 9/11 Memorial. Studio ST and Z-A collaborated on the Prague National Library, the Stockholm Public Library and Swell House.

Studio ST Architects was founded by Esther Sperber in 2003. Esther was born and raised in Jerusalem, Israel. Her first degree is from the Technion and she came to New York in 1997 to complete a master’s degree in architecture at Columbia University.
