Our entry for Sukkah City - a competition held in NYC in 2010 to celebrate the sukkah.
Customarily erected for one week each fall, the sukkah acknowledges the yearly cycle and celebrates the gathering of that which comes from the earth. It also serves as a collective meeting place where individuals come together to eat, drink and share ideas. It is a place that is both protected and vulnerable.
This sukkah is conceived as an intimate communal space composed of bundled recycled/recyclable materials one would find on the streets of New York. The exterior is a sheaf of 365 cardboard tubes tied together by orange construction fencing and pierced by a narrow particleboard passage. The interior volume is a perfect cube of space lined with bundles of the past year’s newspapers for both reading and sitting. The roof of the interior space is composed of open slats of unfinished wood surrounding a central oculus.
As an Owner's Rep and Architect, David has guided us at the Stephan Weiss Studio through a number of complex code, zoning and construction projects. He and his team have been a valuable resource.
David and his team did a great job coordinating with the other members of our construction and design team. He really took charge of the construction process and pushed it to a great conclusion on a fast timetable. We definitely would use him again.
We were thrilled with David and his entire team's performance and skill in our store buildout. The "Katz Team" saw our project through from inception to completion... and were able to constantly arrive at creative and thoughtful solutions.
David has a good eye and creative ideas that really worked well for our space. He was always fair, easy to work with, and always kept our budget in mind. When it came time to start the work, he arranged for an excellent contractor who completed the work on time and with great workmanship.
