Architects pursue high design with latest New York projects
The wide array of projects opening soon in New York — from new office towers and flagship stores to the restoration of historic landmarks — reflects the latest innovation from architects.
Barry Yanku, aviation studio director at Corgan, said his design was inspired by modern dance. “The dance for JFK Terminal 6 is cohesively threaded by the wing-like structure,” Yanku said. “At each phase of the design process, much like choreography, we considered what the space would feel like and created special moments along the way. Passengers find a variety of memorable moments — vibrant and dynamic and, at times, smaller and subtle — creating a mix of soaring roof blades and triple-height volumes, angled balconies and quieter, intimate holding rooms.”
