Gwathmey Siegel & Associates Architects
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gwathmey Siegel & Associates Architects LLC is a New York City-based architectural firm founded in 1967 by architects Charles Gwathmey and Robert Siegel.[1] The firm's work ranges from art and educational facilities and major corporate buildings to furniture systems and decorative art objects.[2] Critics view Gwathmey Siegel's work as the stylistic successors of the formal modernism of Swiss architect Le Corbusier. [3] The firm is especially well-known for its residential architecture, having designed homes for such famous clients as Steven Spielberg, David Geffen, and Ronald Lauder. [3]
