FR Review:
Ronette Riley Architect is known for inventive and hip retail, corporate, and residential spaces around New York, which are described as "contemporary with warm touches." There is a clean, tailored, unified, monochromatic look; distinctly modern without forgetting function. Clients say Riley's "can-do attitude" assures that the project will cross the finish line.
Riley received an M.Arch from Harvard and was associated with Philip Johnson for eight years. Clients find her staff of eight "kind and understanding," and compliment the firm's quality and creativity. Riley happily takes on interior design as well as architecture, helped by an excellent understanding of the latest architectural terrain through her exposure to the retail world. The team is given kudos for managing projects and budgets effectively and maintaining excellent communication with the clients and the contractors.
Branching out with award-winning projects like the Apple Store in Soho, the firm is located significantly atop the Empire State Building. Recent work has included commercial spaces for New World Coffee, John Barrett's salon at Bergdorf Goodman, and Restoration Hardware. Open to doing smaller institutional and residential work, the firm has completed hundreds of residential projects in Manhattan since its inception in 1987. All in all, Ronette Riley is known as a well-diversified, confident name in architecture. Riley AIA Fellow 1998.
