In 2015, Lissoni New York (now Lissoni Architecture New York) under the direction of Piero Lissoni and led by Stefano Giussani, opened its doors at 79 Mercer Street. Although Lissoni & Partners had been working in the United States for some time, the decision to open a formal office led to greater expansion and projects in North and South America.
In 2023, Lissoni New York received certification enabling it to expand its services to include not only interiors but also architecture and established Lissoni Architecture New York as a full architectural services firm based in New York. Through rigorous dedication to each project, Lissoni Architecture New York has built a portfolio of authentic, exceptional design solutions for spaces that occupy unique environments.
āWe could say that our studio has entered its teenage years. So happy birthday to us! Hereās to the years to come with even more visionary, outstanding, and ground-breaking projects,ā said Piero Lissoni, Founder of Lissoni & Partners
The practice is committed to a holistic approach to place-making that synthesizes global influences, context, and innovation. Lissoni Architecture New York approaches each project as an opportunity for innovation and creation, and in keeping with the heritage of the Italian Renaissance, every element of the human experience is taken into consideration as the concept evolves.
“Ten years of projects and goals, merging two cultures across oceans, driven by great enthusiasm for sharing our design approach and philosophy within the context of American living. We’ve embraced understanding, faced challenges, yet always looked ahead with eyes full of excitement for every design venture we’ve undertaken and those we envision for the future.” Stefano Giussani, Partner & COO, Lissoni Architecture New York
