Grazie mille.
We love Italy. I mean who doesn't love Italy? And that makes it even nicer when the wonderful people at Elle Decor Italia decide to feature our work. And they have done us that favor a few times, most recently with a piece about our 120 Allen Street project called Un Edificio a Torre a New York, Stile Post-Industriale e Fascino. An online version of that article is available here. There is also a story available online about our Boro Hotel project here and finally Elle Decor Italia has another about our Urban Villa project in London that can be found here.

...Und vielen dank.
Architectural Digest Germany did us the honor of including a feature about our 120 Allen Street project in their June 2016 issue entitled Marmor Zeigt Muskeln. We are not exactly sure what they said about us as our German is pretty rusty, but trust it was nice given the great interview we had with their journalists. The full article is in the print magazine but a short summary piece is available online here.

Stays of the Union.
Thanks very much to Surface Magazine for featuring us in their November 2015 American Influence Issue! In an article entitled Stays of the Union, Surface selected our Boro Hotel as an example of what they said "are standouts that showcase classic American dynamism." While speaking about the project they continued, "Boro takes advantage of the area's industrial roots and Manhattan views and infuses it with Scandinavian cool while adding enough color to keep it from becoming too serious. As Matthew Grzywinski of New York firm Grzywinski+Pons says, the goal was to acheive a sweet spot of 'happy and minimal'...and it does just that." While the full piece is only in the print version of Surface Magazine you can find a short summary of the article online here.

Cool hunted.
We were excited and flattered to be featured by Cool Hunting in an article entitiled Inside the Boro Hotel in Queens. The always astute team at CH had some really nice things to say about our project and listened to a little of what we had to say about it as well, " 'We had to work around what was already built and glean a nice hospitality space out of it,' architect Matthew Grzywinski tells CH. 'It was like renovating a disused building that just hadn't been used for anything previously.' He continues, 'I think we were relatively successful elevating some otherwise humble or derogated materials in the hotel in a way that wasn't kitschy,' he finishes. The architects also designed much of the furniture in the lobby and cafe as well as the case goods, desks, chairs, bathroom furniture, beds and more in the guest rooms — giving everything a cohesive look."

Good to go in Edinburgh.
We were incredibly pleased at Grzywinski+Pons to have been granted consent and approval for our forthcoming project in Scotland with a unanimous vote from the Edinburgh City Council. This consent will allow us to begin preparing for construction of the 180 room hotel we designed on the Union Canal of the Scottish capital city. It is a real privilege to design and build in a setting with as rich of a cultural and architectural heritage as Edinburgh.
