It is my pleasure to introduce selected architectural works by my firm, Anita Bartholin Brandt Architects (Abbarchitects). I am the principal of a New York City firm specializing in historic
building restoration, interior design and construction.
Our portfolio reflects our expertise in creative design and in the technical knowledge of facade restoration- including decorative iron works, windows, cornices, masonry, stone and roofs.
Our clients and project teams are proud to have received numerous awards for excellence in preservation.
My team and I bring creative passion to every project. We begin by carefully listening to get a thorough understanding of each client’s needs, aesthetic sensibilities and, yes, dreams.
With each project we strive to improve the long term performance of the building and accommodate our client’s budget and schedule. We resolve to solve complex design problems - beautifully.
Please contact me to discuss your future projects.
I welcome the opportunity.
