Our award-winning firm, founded by Esther Sperber in 2003, has unique expertise in architecture and psychology, which we use to create buildings that enhance inclusion, human interaction and expand the range of positive experiences within communities. Our deep understanding of these fields enables us to listen carefully and design new buildings and renovate existing spaces that resonate with people, inspire and connect them.

With over two decades of experience, we put our values at the heart or our design. Whether clients are looking for a synagogue architect, duplex design or multifamily architect, we strive to collaborate with them and our partners to guide them through an enjoyable design and construction process. Studio ST is committed to combining cutting edge technology and creative design with exploring affordable, sustainable options, as well as designing high-end residential renovations. We love designing institutional and community spaces including synagogues, spaces for worship, community centers and schools and find this work to be deeply meaningful and inspiring. We are also considered to be one of the best apartment architects in NYC, with more than two decades of experience of combining and renovating apartments and duplexes.

Studio ST Architects’ work has been published in numerous magazines, media and podcasts around the world. Studio ST was chosen by Wallpaper magazines as one of the “World’s 50 Hottest Young Architectural Firms” and the Swell House was selected by Architectural Record as “Best Unbuilt house”.
