Nina Strachi Architect

Over 35 years of professional experience in all aspects of architectural design and project management, providing a full range of architectural services to clients in the public, corporate and private sector. Specialize in classical residential architecture with a particular emphasis on traditional design and craftsmanship, rigorous detail, livability, and the integration of interior decoration in projects.Born, raised and educated in Europe, the richness of the traditional architecture of the Renaissance and the Secession Style in my native country and visits to Rome, Athens, Vienna, Dresden, Paris, St. Petersburg, Prague, and Krakow enriched my knowledge of the Classical Architecture. In Europe my architectural practice reflected love and passion for classical and traditional architecture, reflected in my work including the contemporary buildings in the 70’s and early 80’s. I moved to New York in 1990.For the last 20 years I worked on the planning, design and discerning detailing of custom high-end residences, apartments, and large-scale estates in the US and Canada. I have an extended and stylistically well versed experience in traditional and classical design. My presentation and well-detailed hand drawings are admired by clients and colleagues and sell projects successfully. As a practicing architect and teacher I bring a unique perspective to Architecture and Interior Design derived from my involvement in a highly diversified range of successful projects.Architecture, for me, is the professional art of creating aesthetic and usable shelter that is both practical and also inspires those that occupy it. Each project is unique and as architects we must acquire a remarkable range of skills and learn the craft of producing architectural solutions that satisfy the needs of the site, of the structure itself, and the client. The greatest award to an architect is having given dedicated service to produce an outstanding result.
