Nicholas G Potts established his eponymous practice after leading high-profile projects at world-renowned firms—including SHoP Architects’ 111 West 57th Street and Bjarke Ingels Group’s Spiral at Hudson Yards—and a secondary career track in research including “Elements of Architecture’ at the XIV Venice Biennale and its companion, a 2600-page encyclopedic history of the everyday elements of architecture with Rem Koolhaas/AMO and the Harvard Graduate School of Design, published by Taschen in 2018. He can currently be seen hosting New York-based episodes of Architectural Digest’s ‘Walking Tour’ and regularly contributes opinion on design to publications including Vogue, Architectural Digest, and Elle Décor.
Our work is founded on an expansive view of architecture that engages with history, beauty, and craft, bringing fresh thinking about the past and a lush sense of material. We see every project as a unique opportunity to learn something new about the people and institutions that occupy our world, and to use research as a foundation for fresh thinking about how to create spaces that transcend everyone’s first expectations.
