TenBerke is a New York–based architecture studio guided by a singular conviction: design must build dignity and decency, delivering imaginative, sustainable, and delightful solutions that serve the greater good. Far from ends in themselves, our projects are instruments of meaningful change—shaping environments that empower users, foster agency, and forge deep connections to time, place, and community. From our early work adapting industrial lofts for artists to today’s ambitious endeavors, we marry bold vision with practical rigor, navigating the space between the world as it is and the world as it ought to be.
Our design ethos balances precision and restraint with moments of unexpected creativity. Minimalist at heart, we steward resources carefully—doing the most with the least—while crafting memorable spaces whose impact deepens over time. United by diverse perspectives and a trust born of collaboration, the TenBerke team approaches each commission with both intelligence and heart, leading clients to dream big and delivering architecture that resonates both at first glance and long after.
