Douglas C. Wright Architects Timeless architecture, thoughtfully reimagined. Based in New York City, designing homes rooted in history and made for modern life. Douglas C.

Wright Architects is a firm of architects, interior designers, and supporting staff based in New York. Over the last eight years, we have designed award-winning projects in a wide range of residential, institutional, and commercial work. We practice in a variety of styles - both historical and current - and strive to combine the very real, pragmatic needs of modernity with our historic architectural influences. We study and integrate all aspects of a designed environment into our projects. The landscapes, buildings, and interiors all influence each other, creating a richness the parts alone cannot achieve. We've worked throughout the United States including New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, California, Texas, Maryland, Maine, Tennessee, Delaware, Florida, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts, as well as Europe and the Caribbean.

A closer look at the spaces we designed to support this NYC family of six. The clean architectural lines and crisp wood detailing provide a structured, elegant framework for the vibrant, playful interiors by Mancini Burns Design.

Edwin Lutyens has always been my favorite architect. He could move between tradition and invention with ease, but some of my favorite stories are about how he actually worked. Apparently, he would wait until everyone had gone home before making his rounds through the office, leaving notes and marks on drawings for his staff to discover the next morning.

Inside the arches, these vertical ribs of white oak around the openings soften the transition between inside and outside. The ribs evoke the soft fall of curtains at a window. When the large doors pocket fully into the walls, the pavilion becomes an open-air loggia.

A little fun with scale and atmosphere in the stair hall of this New York apartment. As you climb the curved stair, the cloud-covered walls continue all the way across the ceiling, so you quite literally end up with your head in the clouds.

Had a great time at the annual IAB Book Bash last week, signing copies of From Hand to Home at Liz O’Brien Gallery. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello, talk architecture, and spend a little time with the book, and to Interior Arts Building and Liz O’Brien Gallery for having me.
